[IAEP] Names for new XO-3 (XO-4!)

[Caryl Bigenho]

Hi Martin,
Thanks for the correction! I was confused. Whatever the name, this new hybrid of laptop and tablet will be a giant leap forward in educational computers.  I had the opportunity to see and play with Bert F's touchscreen XO-1.75 at our SCaLE booth this winter. While  the screen will be entirely different (and superior) the combo idea is the same. Wonderful!
