XO-2 laptop

XO-2 laptop
It's take 2 for the One Laptop Per Child project--version XO-2 of its laptop geared for children in developing countries features two side by side screens. The XO-2 is expected to arrive in 2010.

Some highlights of the new laptop, according to Larry Dignan:

    # OLPC is betting that new developments in hardware, software, display and processor technologies will lower the XO-2’s price tag to $75.

    # OLPC is going with the 1 watt power consumption target so XO-2 can be powered by a hand crank.

    # The XO-2 will feature dual-touch displaces for the e-book.
