Hi there,

Plan Ceibal in Uruguay has done a lot / is doing a lot of work when it
comes to making the XO and Sugar more accessible. Their efforts range
from special input devices to virtual keyboards, changes of the fonts, etc.

For more details I'd suggest you get in touch with Andrea Mangiatordi
(andrea.mangiatordi at gmail.com), an Italian researcher who has been
working in this area in Uruguay for quite some time.

Hope that helps,
Christoph
