Hello,
I have an XO. Went to use it last week and it will not power on at all. Did the hard reset and still no luck. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Did everyone see that the old XO's have a new update? It is total upgrade and adds a control panel, as well as a bunch of new applications. Check it out:

Can anyone give me direction on how to make the XO talk (Chat) with my Mac laptop. I know it uses jabber and I have a gmail account for each user. XO sees the Mac laptop in the neighborhood but I can't get one to recognize the other in the chat program.

Just started to play with the XO today. Want to get familiar with it before I turn it over to my 6 year old granddaughter.

There are also a huge amount of videos on YouTube about this Wii Interactive Whiteboard System. Just search for IR PEN, or if you want to see me make a professor of myself search for "nerd ir pen".
