Third Annual WIRED Store Features The Give One Get One Program to Help Transform Education and Learning in Developing Countries.<\/em> <\/p>\n

(PRWEB<\/a>) November 20, 2007 — WIRED Magazine's WIRED Store has collaborated with the One Laptop per Child's Give One Get One program to help bring education and learning to the one billion children in the developing world who receive inadequate, or in some cases, no education at all. Now, through November 26th, visitors are invited to test the XO laptop by One Laptop per Child (OLPC) at the WIRED Store and purchase online at www.wired.com\/wiredstore<\/a>. For just US$399, individuals who live in the USA or Canada can participate in the Give One Get One program to support the OLPC Foundation by paying for two XO children's laptops – one to give, one to get. <\/p>\n

The WIRED Store is WIRED magazine's annual retail pop-up store located at 60 Greene Street in the Soho neighborhood of New York City. The WIRED Store will be open through December 30, 2007, Wednesday through Friday from 12pm to 8pm and Saturday and Sunday from 12pm to 7pm and closed Monday and Tuesday. <\/p>\n

One Laptop per Child (OLPC) is a non-profit organization launched in 2005 by MIT professor Nicholas Negroponte to design, manufacture and distribute laptop computers that are sufficiently affordable and connected to the Internet, to provide every child in the world access to new channels of learning, sharing and self-expression. <\/p>\n

About One Laptop per Child
One Laptop per Child (OLPC at http:\/\/www.laptop.org<\/a>) is a non-profit organization created by Nicholas Negroponte and others from the MIT Media Lab to design, manufacture and distribute laptop computers that are sufficiently inexpensive to provide every child in the world access to knowledge and modern forms of education. These XO laptops will be rugged, open source, and so energy efficient that they can be powered by a child manually. Mesh networking will give many machines Internet access from one connection. The pricing goal is $100. <\/p>\n

The XO laptops will be sold to governments and issued to children by schools on a basis of one laptop per child. Starting November 12 and for two weeks only, individuals in the U.S. and Canada will be able to participate in the Give One Get One program and for US$399 get a laptop while giving one simultaneously to a child in a developing nation. For more information on the Give One Get One program, go to http:\/\/www.laptopgiving.org<\/a> <\/p>\n
