olpc.tv is a site of videos of children using their OLPC. Here’s one of children in Uruguay.

And an article from the Indian IT magazine CIO, OLPC Heralds Era of Low-cost Computing. It will be interesting to watch how the OLPC gets taken up and discussed in countries it was intended for, vs in the Western media; similar issues, no doubt, but perhaps with a more practical and relevant spin.

Also, I liked this article, History of the World Part II where Miles Weston talks about the history of portable computing from his perspective up to the OLPC.
