I just wish services like Kindle, the iTunes store, etc would roll out in South Africa sooner. (I'm kinda going by the assumption that Kindle isn't available here... I'd be massively surprised if it is.) We have a massive web-enabled userbase, even if much of it is based in cellphones rather than computers. Anyway, the other huge benefit to distributing Kindle to students is of course the free Wikipedia access. I'll assume you saw the xkcd strip about this. Agreed to the max.
