[OLPC India] some progress during "March madness"

[Saurabh Adhikari]

Pradyot:

Thanks for raising the point.
For now, we will 
replace any unit that is not physically damaged.
Repair them and 
recycle them as needed.
Once we have a certain scale in a region, we 
will ask one of the larger service providers to support and see how that
 works. If not, the replacement model is just fine as teh idea is to 
ensure that children have uninterrupted access to it.
Thanks

Sincerely,

S Adhikari
