One Laptop per Child’s (OLPC) XO-3 has been unveiled, and it is
wrapped in silicone. The 8-inch XO-3 has a Marvell ARMADA PXA618
pocessor and 500mb of RAM.
The
silicone in front can be easilly peeled off to reveal the screen that
has a 1024×768 Pixel Qi.
It guarantees visibility both indoor and
outdoor. Removing the cover also reveals a USB and memory card slot and
audio out, enough to cover the basics for an entry-level platform.
The
OS is said to be either Android or the education-focused Sugar
platform. As expected, OLPC’s latest offering is easy on the pocket,
with the XO-3 expected to be priced at $100.
OLPC, however, will only offer XO-3 to educational organisations and charities.
