Send OLPC to burningman to test durability.

I’m writing this post from an OLPC.  It’s on wifi here at Foo camp running a gecko based browser. First impressions -it’s hard to type on. I’m switching to 2 finger mode.

The browser is a bit slow but runs ajaxy  sites well.

Hardware looks good. Screen is nice.

A number of folks in our discussion group led by Ian Bicking wants to send a bunch of these prototypes to burningman to see how they hold up in a harsh physical environment.

More later on a better keyboard…
