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.

Two variants will be available --<br>> XO-4 Laptop and XO-4 Touch (a laptop with multitouch screen).<br>> <br>> The XO-4 Laptop is in general terms externally similar to XO-1.75, but<br>> gruntier guts. XO-4 Touch adds multitouch, so the frame changes a bit.<br>> <br>> cheers,<br>> <br>> <br>> martin<br>> <br>> On Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 11:33 AM, Caryl Bigenho <cbigenho@hotmail.com> wrote:<br>> > OK... crazy idea time... since the new XO-3 will actually be a hybrid of<br>> > laptop and tablet, maybe it should have a new device name to distinguish it<br>> > from others that are merely one or the other.
