it may not keep pace with OLPC, so, how it would be a OLPC killer ..? This is for the childrens..so screen & storage is not a factor.i think 7 inches screen is enough for the children.And there is 40 built in application for the children.but, the main factor is price...its too much for the poor continents like africa,asia.(spe. in SOuth asia)... 399US$ . isn't it too much...? over 25000 taka in Bangladesh ..(!!!!). Will BD GOvt buy them for the children, in 400 Doller ? where they r not interested in OLPC which is just(100US$) (!!)
...In this matter OLPC is much cheaper the the EEEPC from asus.

Ok... storage can be solved by external storage devices, but what about display? And..now that main thing, *how much* will this lappy ( better call: snappy) costs? -- Best, Z [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] --------------------------------- Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
