If the story is true then Google seems to agree with what Microsoft said 1.5 years ago:

Cell phones, not laptops, hold the most promise for providing low-cost access to one-to-one computing in developing nations, according to Microsoft founder and chairman Bill Gates.

Gates’ decree came after Microsoft vice president and chief technology officer Craig Mundie told both he and Gates are convinced that turning cell phones into computers by connecting the handheld devices to keyboards and television sets holds the most promise for the spread of one-to-one computing, especially in developing nations, where access to expensive hardware and software often is difficult.

On a TV there is even enough space for spreadsheets.

In that case, the horrid pile of nepalese yak matter belongs to Mr Malik, so let’s give credit where it’s due.

So, who talked crap about Google against OLPC ?

I’m all ears.

How do you get to report on this unverifiable pile of nepalese yak B.S. ?

I’m an avid reader, but this isn’t even a rumour… it’s plain B.S. creating and issue where there is none, messing with a project that deserves our highest admiration for the altruism, solidarity and other values that are alien to despicable characters who are unable to entertain the possibility of a better world.

Next time you get crap like this from unreliable sources, please think twice before clicking the “Post” button.

I’ll keep reading… for now.

If you check out EP 116, about 7 minutes in or so, we go into extrapolation on my conversation with my friend … might provide a bit more insight for those that are a little doubtful or confused.
