[Olpc-france] XO-3 ?

[Sean DALY]

le XO-3 reste un concept pour l'instant, mais je ne serai pas étonné
s'il y aura du Mary Lou Jepsen dedans (ingénieur dévloppeur de l'écran
des XOs, fondatrice de Pixel Qi).

Des machines beta de l'XO-1.75 nom de code "Zeno" doté d'un processeur
ARM seront disponibles d'ici 4 mois environ.

OLPC se concentre sur le XO-1.5 pour l'instant qui aura bien Sugar
v0.86 en production au début de l'année si les petits soucis seront
résolus.

> X: In January, you laid out four main goals: development of the
> Generation 2.0 laptop, a no-cost connectivity program, publishing a
> million digital books, and passing on the development of the Sugar
> operating system to the community. We just asked about the books.
> Could you provide an update on the other three areas?

> NN: 2.0 has been replaced by two things: 1) model 1.75, same
> industrial design but an ARM inside, 2) model 3.0, totally different
> industrial design, more like a sheet of paper. No cost connectivity
> will start up with the ITU in Geneva. It has been the slowest piece.

> color, reflective and transmissive, no bezel, no holes. 1W. $75, ready
