Warning: these are NOT OFFICIAL SPECIFICATIONS. They are written by our collaborators and interns, and are informational documents that will aid us internally when building software and features for the laptop. Do NOT assume that these specifications describe something we (XO Korea) will choose to deliver!

Mesh Phone is a low cost mobile wifi phone supporting XO mesh network. Belkin's Wi-Fi Phone is similar to our mesh phone prototype,;

  • if XO's 88w8388 (rather than Belkin's Marvell 88W8385 integrated 802.11g wireless MAC/BB and 88W8015 RF transceiver devices) are used,
  • if the same mesh capability as XO is provided,
  • if based on open source architecture, and
  • if available under $50 per unit.

We are contacting various vendors and communities to introduce those mesh phones when XOs are distributed to Korea.
