I still think the schools that would be most helped by this promotion won't have the equipment to take advantage of it. They should really target the poorer schools for the reader give-a-ways, not just the first 100 to sign up.

Certainly 5 eBook readers is only a sampling anyway. I think it is more likely that schools with those eBooks would use them in conjunction with the eBook Library software which is a free download anyway and will work with the existing computers in the schools labs. It contains a very good software reader for these books. It has been my experience that these computers are often under utilized because the teachers do not have the expertise to integrate them into the curriculum. This could be part of the solution to this problem.
