Earth Treasury mission. I have been wishing for a way to get these
services into every accessible refugee camp and region of oppression,
and here it is. I have called him to discuss how Gnuveau/SolarNetOne
might collaborate with the profusion of OLPC projects around the
world.

There are many initiatives to bring tech to developing areas of the
globe; things like OLPC, Geekcorps, and UN programs. One new approach
from SolarNetOne strives to allow users in those developing areas to
have access to an internet connection without having to depend on
unreliable infrastructure.

"Each SolarNetOne kit is a self-powered communications network. Energy
is produced from a solar array sized to each locale's latitude and
predominant weather conditions. The generated power is stored in a
substantial battery array, and circuit breakers and electronics
protect the gear from overloads and other perturbations. A basic kit
includes five 'seats,' implemented as thin clients connected through a
LAN to a central server. The networking gear also includes a
long-range, omnidirectional WiFi access point, and a Session
Initiation Protocol (SIP) device. Each kit also includes all the
cables and wires required to assemble the system, so few additional
materials are required for an installation."

Gnuveau proudly announces SolarNetOne, a solar powered multi-user
Linux Terminal Server network, with integrated long range wireless
access point, analog telephone adapter, proximity based security
system, and many other features.
