One laptop per child?

In some developing countries, a new program titled "OLPC" or one laptop per child is being started to provide children with the chance to become educated. The children of these countries are given a very cheap, somewhat low grade laptop. The program has increased attendance rates in schools dramatically.
I think that this program is a very good idea. If these third world, developing nations manage to educate the youth of their nation, they might be able to solve the problems facing that country such as debt, poverty, crime and any other civil problem.
The only criticism I have towards the program is that some nations cant afford to provide the kids with the laptops. Also, the nations don't have the capabilities to teach the kids to read, write, and use the computers.
Overall, the program is a very good idea.
