I recently purchased a Genesi Efika MX smartbook (<a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.genesi-usa.com/products/smartbook"
target="_blank">https://www.genesi-usa.com/products/smartbook</a>)
and so far I'm very impressed with it.<br>
it only costs about $199 before shipping and it seems to have
enough power to outdo the XO-1 laptops that I have.<br>
<br>
what do you think about the possibility of using the Efika as
a readily available alternative to the XO?<br>
we might even be able to get it in a more ruggedized form if
we are lucky.<br>
<br>
I have made an sd card image that boots directly into a sugar
desktop on the Efika MX if anyone is interested and already
has the hardware<br>
once the kernel gets bumped past 2.6.31 I would like to try
getting 802.11s working on it to see if I can make it talk to
my other two XO-1s.<br>
<br>
if you are interested I will post a link to the sd card image.<br>

As promised the link to get the Sugar demo is

<br>
I will post an update to the wiki soon and move the discussion to
the sugar-devel list. <br>
