<br>Good afternoon everyone,<br><br>I've been following the OLPC initiative since the early days of about a decade ago.Back then I was the Executive Director of an NGO that refurbished old desktop computers and provided them to NGOs, Faith Based Inititiatives, and children's after school programs.<br>
<br>In any case I just caught wind <a href="http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2010/05/27/negreponte-one-laptop-per-child-is-now-a-75-android-tablet/">of this story</a> which is an old article from May of 2010. In which case you OLPC guys will probably know about it already.<br>
<br>Though I think it's a great idea I don't think it will take the place of the current design in all circumstances because I didn't see any mention of other power source options. So how are would they power it in a village with no electricity?<br>
<br>Though I'm sure something else could be thought of. Perhaps a secondary device for providing power ... And I don't know how many current OLPC distributions have taken place in remote villages any how though the concept was intriguing.<br>
