Get someone else to download videos, and put them on the school
server, or provide them on USB keys.

As above. An alternative approach is to fund Internet access through
microfinance, taking advantage of the business opportunities that
Internet opens up.

Collaboration should allow one XO to download, and share with others.
Otherwise, cache on server.

Lesson plans. Yes, we need thousands of lesson plans.

Ask source to license under CC, or redo in a different version. The
ideas are not subject to copyright, just the expression of the ideas,
meaning words and images. Get children to make their own versions as

Silent Thunder is my name, and Children are my nation.
The Cosmos is my dwelling place, the Truth my destination.
