Jim mentioned the http proxy servers in this thread:

This is the only public info I could find:

What is the typical school/city/town server node going to be like  
(hardware/cost)?
Where will it be typically located? In a place where electricity/ 
network is available (e.g. central location has power and a network  
connection) or in a place where rolling blackouts are part of life?

What kind of storage and how much more storage will be available on  
the server versions?

Are there any plans for centralized web applications (e.g. on the  
server nodes) with some kind of synchronization capability?
