OLPC Size Comparision

posted by rajbot on January 2nd, 2007

Here are some pics that show size comparisions between the OLPC and the 12″ powerbook. I’m trying to figure out how to design great ebooks for the OLPC form factor. Although its screen is quite a bit smaller than the powerbook, it has more pixels!

	OLPC	powerbook
resolution	1200×900	1024×768
dimensions	6″x4.5″	9.6″x7.3″
dpi	200	106

These will be initially sold to governements, and would cost about US $100. Don’t know what the price of the commercial version would be, or when it would be available. There is a bit more info in the FAQ.
