      @Calestous wasn't the OLPC program considered a failure? I recall it being frequently cited by economists as failed (& expensive) innovation

      @MollyKinder @Calestous Would like to chime in here- would consider it failure in meeting education goals. Test results show no improvements

      @Mbwana @MollyKinder The first argument was that it was a technical impossibility. Every stage there has been a new argument.

      @calestous @mollykinder so how do you want to measure it. Number of laptop, tablet to children? Samsung or nokia may win.

      @Mbwana @MollyKinder OLPC was the reason netbooks were launched in response which was a good think. Many other products will come.

      @calestous @mollykinder but how has OLPC adapted to the trends and fulfilled it's mission? Is their mission still relevant in education?

      @calestous @mollykinder i would just like to understand how they measure success and how they are doing against their goals in education.

      @Mbwana @MollyKinder Hopefully not through 140 characters. They just published a book so that is a start if you're interested.

      @Calestous @mollykinder just to prove I can debate on more than 140 characters and done my research up to Jan 2012 -http://www.ictworks.org/news/2012/01/13/olpc-xo-30-right-education-tablet-schools-africa …

      @Mbwana @MollyKinder There will be no tablet anytime time. That is an idea abandoned a while back.

          @Calestous @mollykinder of course. But in Jan 2012 they were pushing it Las Vegas CES. That's a fact, only 10 months ago. #missionclarity

          @Mbwana @MollyKinder 10 months is a long time in tech world as well know. How many devices at that show see the light of day?

          @Calestous @mollykinder always comes down to mission clarity & the ability to be nimble & partner for scaling. That's where they fall short
