"The plans for the new design, the XOXO (or XO 2), are to be unveiled Tuesday. Scheduled for introduction in 2010, it will be a tablet computer that several kids can use at once, and will combine the functions of a laptop, electronic book and electronic board. Negroponte describes it as "a totally new concept for learning devices" and hopes to sell it for $75 in 2010. OLPC's former chief technology officer, Mary Lou Jepsen, intends to sell the laptops she's now developing for her start-up company, Pixel Qi, for $75, too." "All of the lessons learned from using the XO have been applied to the development of the XOXO tablet computer, and to an interim model, the XO 1.5, which is to be introduced in spring next year. Negroponte says that it will be "faster, brighter, cheaper and even less power-demanding," and that OLPC is soon to announce new partnerships, which should speed up its progress."
