The One Laptop Per Child Foundation is to begin selling individual XO laptops in the US, according to founder Nicholas Negroponte.

Sales of the XO in the US have so far been limited to a scheme called Give One Get One, where an XO laptop could be purchased for $399. This price included a donation of an identical laptop to a developing nation. The scheme was intended to run for two weeks, but was extended after sales exceeded expectations.
