Hello,

I am wondering about the possibility of using the XO with a USB device known
as the TTT, or Talking Tactile Tablet. This unit is used in conjunction with
Braille literacy courseware known as SAL2.  There are significant
opportunities for teaching Braille skills in the developing world using this
system, which permits students to learn and practice Braille reading and
writing. Considering that braille literacy is the considered the key to
providing opportunities for this population, and because there is a serious
dearth of qualified braille teachers, making SAL2 and the TTT available
along with the XO might be a very worthwhile goal. I would appreciate any
advice as to how to go about introducing this possibility to the development
community.

Thanks,
Steve Landau
