A quite unbelievable group of OLPC social entrepreneurs and volunteers 
working in Kenya, Haiti, South American, Central America (and Canada!) 
have clustered around Toronto and Southern Ontario in recent years, and 
are now coming together to discuss the very latest around all 3 
"current" generations of laptops (XO-1, XO-1.5 and XO-1.75).

And of course the latest insider rumors on the upcoming XO-3 tablet!

What an important time for Canada's Best to kick back and reflect on 
what's really emerging from our almost-4-year-effort now, providing free 
and open software making exploratory learning happen.  Among the world's 
poorest chidren, inside schools and far beyond -- across so many 
nations, one kid at a time... SAVE THE DATE SUNDAY SEPT 18!

All are most welcome to join us if you reply -- that means everyone, 
Intl Development specialists, curriculum experts, and...teachers into 
technology especially!/  We just ask you to RSVP for the address of the 
private garden and farmhouse where this will be hosted, thanks =)/
