One of the issues with the OLCP project has always been power. There’s just not electricity in all the parts of the world where the OLPC is intended to be used.

My major issue with the Mamba (once the other issues were sorted out) was the price. $130 MSRP was just too much to give it a solid “buy” rating. But for a limited time, you can get one for $55 off the cover price, which makes it a much better deal.
