I understand that manufacturing units for official OLPC deployments are a priority, but if GmGm is still a possibility it would be helpful to have some sort of "order by" schedule. So if there were going to be a manufacturing run that incorporated English keyboards, such that an organization willing to order 100 units @ $300 each could obtain them after that run, it would be helpful to know that this would be possible if they ordered by (say) 3 months before that time. This would allow the bureaucracy to grind out a timely purchase order, while still being driven by the needs of the OLPC deployments.
