Thanks for the quick response, Adam.  I'm sorry to hear that.  Many
people I speak with (several each time I bring out my XO at a cafe)
are interested in getting one and currently (other than donations) I
don't have a specific place that I feel speaks to them.  What URL
might you recommend I point them to?  http://laptopfoundation.org ?
http://www.amazon.com/xo ? http://laptop.org ?

Our own Toaster project
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/Toaster is a Contributor
Program recipient.  We'll be presenting at the
http://olpcsf.org/CommunitySummit2010/ with our progress.
