Re: Walker, enjoyed your presentation on MIT's Soapbox.

I would like to bring to your attention our organization Eduit.org. We are a 501c3 IT education nonprofit focused on developing an online game/education for K-12 math/science. Our goal is to flatten global K-12 education using an online game best described as "Pokeman meets who wants to be a millionaire, but on steroids."

I would be interested in the possibility of aligning ourselves with olpc as a strategic partner. I think our K12 Online software solution would be the finnishing piece for olpc.

Also, we have been approached to provide a math/science education solution and want to explore utilizing your laptop for the hardware component. Dell has offered to provide laptops for free--but they just going to be a problematic given the logistics. We would be looking at probably around a 50,000 units and we would of course pay for them.

Anyway, I look forward to chatting with you. I live in and telecommute out of Japan, so it may be a challenge arranging a good time for us to chat. For convenience I do have a DC number that redirects to Japan its is 202 360 4467. Whats your itinerary like for next week maybe we can arrange a time to chat.


 * Sincerely,


 * Michael
