The biggest problem I see with the Mesh is that a hop basically jumps around from computer to computer looking for a way back home. That is a lot of jumping. Then you have the fact that one in how ever many is the AP for how many different OLPCs. Not that the under powered little guy couldn't server as a router, but after a few hundred or more decide to route through him, he gets pretty busy. In which case, I would hate to be the rich kid on the block with Internet Access.
Oh well.
