You thought the $100 "Open Laptop Per Child" program was meant for providing low-cost computers to kids in developing nations but these images of XO version 2.0 may change that perception.
This fully-functional laptop tablet computer is the size of a book, sports a dual touch sensitive screen (no keyboard) and can also be folded like a book. The prototype uses the same 16:9 screen that are seen in DVD players.
The only problem – this desirable XOXO tablet computer won’t ship before 2010 and that’s a very long period.
For more on the XOXO laptop, check out PC World, Laptopmag and IHT.
