Then you could get yourself a N810 and probaly get a doz or so OLPC's to take and give to the people you spoke about on your next trip.


I just don't think from what PKickTalk had outlined in his video, that the N810 would be the ideal product in that enviroment, I really think the OLPC would be a much better fit.
Haha. Well thanks for the support. A lot of that is borrowed gear by the way. You may be right about the OLPC for some of the ethnography and that work, but I do believe that many of the people, especially foreigners helping people in Namibia who are running those projects could benefit from N810s. ~hint hint Nokia, if you're following this contest~

But thanks for the support. I'm really impressed with all the entries. It's neat to see the broad range of uses that people have found for these devices! (and I'd love to discover some more! hehe).

By the way if anyone's interested in the work I referred to, check out: www.incef.org and www.kalaharipeoples.org
