The German webzine "heise mobil" has an excellent 8 (web)page article on the XO (English translation provided), A good review of the hardware, the XO's unique dual-mode display, the innovative software (including Etoys!) and the cooperating developers and sponsors.
The writer, Jürgen Rink, touches on the security concept called Bitfrost and does a credible job of continuing to ask not only "if" the project will be successful, but also "how".
Check it out!
EToys. Remember that the Squeak VM and Etoys are available and packaged as RPMs. The easiest way to get them is with yum. See here.
