OLPC 1.5 with C7 processor spotted - and played with

We've known for a long while now that the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) netbooks would be getting a VIA processor with their next upgrade. The OLPC learning club in DC has one already and they've published a video comparing it to the previous version. The OLPC 1.0 has an AMD Geode 433MHz whilst the new OLPC 1.5 model has a VIA 1GHz which operates at variable speeds (presumably depending on the application/s being run). - Liliputing If you're wondering why they use a VIA C7-M instead of a Nano, it would be because of a cost vs performance consideration. OLPC netbooks are designed for educational needs of kids in third world countries.
