As it turns out, this is an automated process with a built-in delay (the 
purpose is to ensure that laptops aren't stolen and repurposed, and the 
delay gives time to report a theft).

Which means that the sooner you submit your request for a developer key, 
the sooner a developer key will pop out of the system.

The *very* specific directions, in case you've missed them in the other 
noise:

The folks at OLPC are working on temporarily eliminating the delay between 
request and creation.  I will let you know as soon as I have more info.
