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.
