Pretty nifty for outdoor use. Check out the <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Hardware_specification#Display" rel="nofollow">specs</a>. Regarding “Is the display black and white?”:

It's a nice token of this neat endeavor to help children by providing them with some technology that may help widen their minds and better their view of the world. Remember, I didn't just buy this--a child has its twin.

It may be fine for donations, but to sell them in the U.S. may create a lot of unhappy customers here. Just because people “tried” really hard, does that mean one can’t criticize it.

The system was designed with the specific purpose in mind. It was never intended to be power box. I have seen videos of i, doing what its supposed to do, and it seems good enough. People have put their heart and soul into this, calling this crappy is just showing disrespect. I dont know how this would be crappy or even close to it.

I wonder how useful it will be to the African children. Sounds a little crappy. I wonder how useful it will be to the African children.
