thank you. 20:27, 22 May 2008 (EDT)

yet more questions

Q. will the XO-2 ...

• be as physically durable as its forerunner?
• have the same mesh range without the ears?
• come with a tablet pen?
• be scratch-resistant/easy to keep clean, considering all the finger- and (likely) dirt-touching going on?
• be able to adjust the brightness of each screen separately, to account for the glare of the monitor?

screen specs?

• Same pixel format as the XO-1 or something else?
• Good pixel count? 1920x1080 (HDTV) is good for media compatibility, and the 960x540 you get with 2x upscaling is good for the web
• Resolution? 254 DPI is pretty much ideal. It's 0.1 mm pitch, allowing the screen to be an exact size in mm.

• Touch resolution?
• Pressure sensitivity? (so kids are encouraged to crack the screen)

USB

I don't recommend that you put in USB. Extensions like mice and keyboards probably won't be necesary anyway. For external memory, xD or SD would be better. 68.144.170.184 18:51, 23 May 2008 (EDT)

Suggestions

What about covering the outside with solar cells, so that it recharge when not in use.

neat idea, but would that not wear out the battery quicker?
