There are a lot of cool ideas in the OLPC laptop:

Amazing -- it really exists now and is on sale? Why does the program last
for only two weeks??! I'll have to think about it.
My wife's family is in Quito, Ecuador, and they are all quite poor by our
standards. All of her nieces and nephews could use these laptops. To pay
$400 each is a little steep, but if I could get them for $200 apiece, I
might just buy a dozen and have them shipped directly to Quito.
One major issue: Do they have a Spanish-language version of the OS and
other software? I didn't see "language" mentioned on that page.
