Re: One-Laptop-per-Child two XO-1 ? Have I missed something ? Are these good for Ham Radio applications ?
The way I see it: * Goal is $100 laptop * Runs under Linux * Excellent visibility in bright sun * Runs Display uses only 0.1W in sun * Can be charged by solar power * built-in 802.11 wireless plus automatic MESHING with others * Targeted at youth worldwide...
And on and on...
Seems the perfect platform for HAM radio!
