One Laptop Per Child Revamps Tablet Plans

,----[ Quote ]
| The One Laptop Per Child foundation's aim to
| create the world's most innovative tablet
| computer for the developing world just took
| a giant leap toward reality. But as is often
| the case, reality may not be quite as
| exciting as imagination.
|
| On Thursday the foundation announced a
| partnership with chip maker Marvell to
| collaborate on a sleek and cheap touch-
| screen tablet for developing-world school
| children, a device it now plans to launch at
| the Consumer Electronics Show in January
| 2011 for less than $100. One Laptop Per
| Child (OLPC) says that's close to two years
| ahead of its scheduled release for the so-
| called XO-3, the long-awaited upgrade to the
| non-profit's XO, the so-called "hundred-
| dollar laptop" launched in 2007.
