If you dally, your only options will be eBay or direct donations to others through the Simply Give and Give a School programs.

Thank you very much for this wonderful possibility to make OLCP available for all children.

I was puzzled to still see ads for and links to Amazon's G1G1 program today, at a point at which the entire world has entered the New Year. I know websites get out of date, but as far as I can tell, Amazon has not gotten the memo, or not acted on it, because the xo is listed as "in stock".
Without imputing malice anywhere (I continue to be delighted with the G1G1 laptop I've used for 8 months now) I suggest that OLPC's New Year' resolutions include a higher level of transparency to improve the confidence we supporters can have in repeating what we hear from them!
