Hi,
Some days ago a friend of mine told me that a computer manufacturing company (I just don't remember it's name) has launched or going to launch a laptop for children which costs only 100dollars.
Does anybody has more info regarding this? When it will arrive in market? What kind of softwares does it have?
Please comment.
Thanks.

The laptops are still being planned to sell for $100 and will run Linux.

Note that the $100 is a volume purchase price, if the laptops do become available to individual consumers it will be at a significantly higher cost.

Hi,
Here is another link:

The link above says the laptops will be wind-up, for education purposes, distributed to developing nations' governments, then given, free, to schools.
Best wishes, and I hope this helps you.
