Hi Sameer, hi all,

I just read an interesting review about Labomobil, a company in
Dakar/Senegal trying to bridge the digital divide by providing technology
transfers and a 3-in-1 solution combining wifi access + solar-power
solutions + telefony for remote areas in villages.

The engineer who is working on this project has designed and built
technology and financially suitable solutions for olpc deployments in
Senegal.

It appears that the San Francisco State University, who is planning
another olpc deployment in Madagascar, is involved in this "Green Wifi"
project.

Best regards

Samy
