[ale] OLPC.. Wow.

[Charles Shapiro]

Okay, here I is in the coffee shoppe. Alas, it appears their access point is
on channel 9; olpc prefers 1, 6, and 11. I managed to connect just long
enough to ask for a developer key and receive a note that it'll be ready
tomorrow.  Looks like I can use some USB ethernet adapters with it; I've
ordered one from NewEgg so that I can connect properly from my house. That
should make things easier.
