I think most people have heard of the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) Program by now and if you haven't you need to hit the link at the bottom to learn more. The OLPC is a $200 laptop designed for children in developing countries. It can be powered by an electrical outlet, solar panels, pull string or crank and comes pre installed with a Linux operating system and some really interesting programs.
Now the really exciting part; You can finally get one for yourself. $399 buys one for you and a child in a developing country!
