Low-cost is the next black. If only low-weight and long-battery-life were to join in the fray, we could shift the world's marketing campaigns to tools that truly change quality of life and effort, rather than the current cycle of dhyping tools that are buggy and hard to use, and deprecating them soon after these "low" targets come within reach.

OLPC provides a handy pace project for low-cost ambitions. I want to hear more quotes such as:

"Not wanting to miss out on the fun, [company] is also considering a low-cost [cool technology tool] design, and met with [OLPC representative] this week to discuss their ideas."
