Because OLPC XO will be sold to general public with G1G1: 1. The user may be adult big fingers. Is it possible to use standard size, external USB keyboard and mouse with XO laptops?
2. The user may want to use other Linux Distro using LiveCD, such as Knoppix, DSL, etc. Unfortunately Linux on XO must use modified/patched kernel and different boot method. Is there any wiki / HOWTO on creating Linux LiveCD for booting XO laptops from external USB CD-ROM drive or external flash drive? http://www.livecdlist.com 3. In Vietnam and India, the government plan to use WiMax, not WiFi in rural areas. In developing countries such as Singapore, Korea, Taiwan, Japan, USA, there are new project to deploy WiMax network. Is it possible to use external WiMax with OLPC? The public user in developing countries may want to use WiMax, not WiFi. Can the governments in developing countries order OLPC XO with built-in WiMax, not WiFi? 4. According to Insyde, the BIOS for OLPC XO laptops should be provided by vendor (OLPC) and customer cannot buy the BIOS directly from Insyde. Can OLPC sell the Insyde BIOS as optional add-on for public (through G1G1)?
