Like Christmas at Easter

Late last week I received an email saying:

Please send us your complete address and phone number so we can send you a 
XO B2 machine.
If I said I hadn't been repeatedly refreshing the package tracker page ever since i'd be lying. :-) Unfortunately while I know the package left Auckland late this morning I won't be getting it until tomorrow at the earliest as today is a public holiday. :-(

Now I just have to come up with something to do with the OLPC laptop to make their investment in sending me one worthwhile:

(The delivery is the result of a submission I made at linux.conf.au in January where Jim Gettys invited people to email development ideas for a chance to get a OLPC laptop to develop on.)

But remember: "It's an education project, not a laptop project."—Nicholas Negroponte
