Looks like a bunch of off the shelf hardware (Raspberry Pi, small monitor, keyboard etc.) put into a nice box and offered for a reasonable price? Not a bad idea, I was thinking about doing the same for my 23 month old now that he's mastered his iPad. He's really interested in my desktop and like to move the mouse and click on stuff :) anyway looks cool if I did not already have most of the components I would buy one. (still might)

awesome, I was also curious about buying this for my little cousin (6). I think my other 10y cousin would love this too, she already told me how good a netbook fits to her tiny fingers, so sweet. But the tutorials, manual and software is all English, so he'd first have to learn English :-/

Wish people would value internationalization much more, other than just assuming English fits all.

You read our minds. We're going to launch with the Kano books translated into Spanish and Arabic, to start, and then continuing to add languages. Really important IMO to recognize that next digital generation won't just speak English, live in SF, London, etc.

I'm not sure the monitor's included, that would actually make it pretty good of an offer.
