re: OLPC - me too! :-)
I’ve had a quick play with one, and they are very sweet little devices. The interface is very different to the Windows norms, so it takes a while to get used to it. But once you get your head round it, it’s kinda fun.

Did you get the impression it would be pretty hackable?

Yeah, definitely. There is already a decent collection of resources for developers out there, and I’ve been meaning to try out this (http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-sugar-olpc/index.html) for months now - instructions for running the OLPC software in an emulator. It’s been one of those things sitting at the bottom of my task list for a while :-)
