An application developer can do most of theor work on any system, especially if they are using the OLPC Python Environment. However it is a good idea to do your testing on a system that is similar to the OLPC, i.e. low memory, battery powered, portable.
Some possibilities are:
- Sharp Zaurus is a PDA running Linux. Several model look like mini laptops.
- PepperPad is a Linux-based tablet device. The 3rd model in the range has adopted the AMD GEODE CPU however that is less relevant for Python applications.
- A German company sells the Flepo Mini PC1 which runs exactly the same CPU as the OLPC.
- NTAVO Thin Client terminals run Linux. The PuppyLinux folks have ported their low memory system to it.
- Ndiyo Nivo is a "ultra-thin-client hardware" - not a laptop, but another idea on cost reduction (maybe a "thin" OLPC along such lines could of interest in future iterations?)
