One Laptop per Child

Give a Child a Laptop, Get a Child a Laptop Nov 12-26

One Laptop Per Child's Give One Get One Campaign starts today and runs till November 26th.

The deal is that over the next two weeks you can buy an XO Laptop for a child in the "developing" world and get an XO Laptop for your own child, or a child in your community, for $399. $200 of your $399 is tax-deductible. In addition, T-Mobile is giving donors one year of complimentary access to T-Mobile HotSpots in the US.

According to the One Laptop Per Child News, they are selling out fast!

"That's right, in less than 12 hours, OLPC has already sold three days worth of CO computers to geek enthusiasts all across the USA and Canada."

Scott Beale of Laughing Squid posted some cool pics of the XO today, and Mia of Popgadget described some of its features:
