Totally Awesome : XO-3 by One Laptop per Child (OLPC)!!! January 22nd, 2010
The nonprofit group One Laptop Per Child wants to produce a touchscreen tablet computer by 2012 that will cost less than $100…. OLPC released its device roadmap, which includes two upgrades to the original XO computer, as well as lofty plans for a new 8.5-by-11-inch tablet device called the XO-3….
The design for the XO-3 is ambitious. The tablet would be about 0.24-inch thick (half the thickness of the iPhone), with an 8.5-by-11-inch screen, a virtual keyboard, no buttons at all, and a folding ring for easy carrying. It would be made entirely of plastic, and is designed to be durable and waterproof.. The device would use Palm Pre-style induction charging, so it would use less than a Watt of power… There’s no word on software, but the XO-3 would have an 8-GHz processor…
Probably the best laptop design concept I have seen in my life…. Forget Apple, these guys are true visionaries…
