OLPC unveils slimline tablet PC

xoThe XO-3 has been revealed by the group behind the $100 laptop. All we have is a design at the moment, but it looks very neat. From the BBC- “The group behind the $100 laptop has revealed the design for its latest computer aimed at connecting children in the developing world.

The XO-3, as it is known, is a slim-line touchscreen tablet PC.

One Laptop per Child (OLPC) said it would be “available in 2012″ and would cost “well below $100″.

The new design replaces the proposed XO-2, a foldable e-book that was first shown off in 2008 but has since been scrapped by the organisation.

The XO-3 will eventually replace the original XO laptop that first went into production in 2007.

The innovative machines, which have been designed for use in remote and harsh environments, were designed for use by school children and featured a sunlight readable display and open source software.”
