Hi Frank,

    as the XO laptop is aimed at younger students in developing countries, I 
thought it may be an excellent resource for Sunday schools, and Bible 
studies / devotionals.  I was hoping to find people working on software for 
it.  But I haven't found anyone working on that yet.

    My apprentice at work has also purchased one through the G1G1 program.  if 
there had been more interest in the Christian computer community in this 
project I likely would have gotten on board too.

    Thanks for your reply.

             Ron T.
