Apparently the matter is still being negotiated:

I'm surprised that they think that all of the text books they need will be available --- also how will licensing them be handled? (and what will be the budget for replacements of broken units). What about teachers' editions of texts?
Given the limits of DRM (if they don't use opensource / copy-left textbooks), a given unit will pretty much be locked to a particular grade (and who pays the extra when a student needs an extra textbook 'cause they're taking an advanced level or AP class? Kind of unlikely to charge the student full price for this when they won't get to keep the text afterwards).
How will they control web browsing during classes? Or students purchasing additional books from Amazon on the school's dime?
