[Olpc-open] next gen XO + coprocessor?

[John Kintree]

With the XO laptop, the quality of the video that goes straight
from the camera to the screen is pretty good, but the quality
of video that is recorded with the Record activity, saved, and
then played from storage is not nearly as good.  Perhaps a
coprocessor could help improve that video quality.

In March of 2005, Andrey Filippov reported that he had used a
Xilinx FPGA with theora to design a network camera that
could compress the image from a 1280x1024 sensor in 
real-time at 30 fps.
