[olpc-nz] Draft Testing Report - 26 Sept 09

[Brenda Wallace]

I have this to add:

Read ETexts-
When performing a seach, the list of matches will appear but the
titles are all greyed out and will not allow us to select it to
download.
However, we have been able to select on another XO- we did not have
internet on it, though, so were unable to test download.
Search, select, and download seems to work fine on laptop running SoaS
we closed the activity, and started again - now the book tab is gone.
