Hi John at all-- > A RasberryPi would > make a hell of a foundation for a new OLPC model. I have just got purchased here a "toy" for my kid as the following: Huawei Ideos S7 Slim Qualcomm 1.0 http://www.tabletfactorystore.com/tablet-pc/huawei-ideos-s7-slim.html It costs about USD330 here. I believe prices will drop under USD100 in a couple of years for such "power toys". That or something like that would be true OLPC very soon I hope. Thank you. -- Shamil 02 января 2012, 22:24 от jwcolby <jwcolby at colbyconsulting.com>: > I just find it a fascinating concept.
