Eric Smith did say:
Another criticism of OLPC, which I don't think
you're trying to make,
but that many others have, is that they failed to make a $100 laptop,
since the price is around $188.
That's what I was getting at when I said he needed to get his act
together, i.e. try to get it down to $100. But even at $188, it is still
a spectacular little machine.

You can get keyboards for Palm based phones and some phones have keyboards, problem is the
phone is like $300.00. Ever try and read the web on these things read a text file?
What should make money? Video output for phones so you can put them on TV and finally have
a screen big enough to read. Also you can see your photos and videos you make.
