OLPC - Nov 12 launch

[Tech Writer]

Ben:
If you try and/or decide on one, let me know.  I was looking at the three 
you pointed to, and the Asus Eee PC seems like it would be a good fit.  Too 
bad they had to raise the price to make it almost twice the original 
estimate of $200.  But still, it looks really portable, runs Firefox and 
OpenOffice and looks really convenient to carry around.  Add a DVD player, 
and who wouldn't want one ;)
