OLPCXOLPotD: FRAPPR XO LAPTOP USER MAP

Waaay back on November 29, 2007, Wayan Vota of OLPCNews.com posted a Frappr map for XO users to mark where they are in the world. Since it's been over two weeks I thought it might be a good time to repost it so as people get their XOs delivered they can add themselves to the map.

In other OLPCXO news, I'm already pretty active over at the forum at OLPCNews.com (and so are a lot of other people, like Utterz.com pals PixelFish and Fricka). Meanwhile, Western Illinois University professor Bradley Dilger blogs about how his daughter's XO arrived last night and what he thinks of it. He has, in part, this to say about the XO:

I’ve only used it an hour or two, but I have to say I’m very impressed. If this is the first version of what will be many hardware and software iterations to follow, a lot of vendors suddenly have some work to do. The SUGAR interface, which OLPC describes as hiding the robust Linux OS, is extremely cool, and I could quite easily see myself using it on a regular basis.

Hey, I thought he said it was his daughter's XO. o_O

Dilger has much more to say about the XO, so if you're curious, swing by.

Back at the OLPCNews.com/forum a short stack of people are chiming in to say they've already gotten their XOs and plenty more are chiming in on how envious they are--me included ^_^ So, if you're still waiting for yours and want to feel envious or have gotten yours and want to celebrate, head over to the G1G1 Introduction subforum.
