Lets create the PineCom
(11-28-2020, 08:28 AM)Abishek_Muthian Wrote: I feel a device like PineCom can help deliver remote education for the underprivileged.

During this pandemic remote education became a norm as availability of an Internet connected device is being taken for granted. But children from marginalised sections of the society from around the world weren't able to receive their online courses due to the lack of access to devices and during lockdown teachers lost track of students living in remote areas due to lack of cellular/Internet coverage.

Since major Telecom and ISPs don't bother serving in those areas, LoRAWAN setup by the NGOs or even Govt. in those locations could be the communication backbone; In that case a device like PineCom would be an immensely useful communication/computation platform.

As for the education, without proper Internet access these children can now receive educational content only through over-the-air television and radio. I think a DVB-T receiver connected to PineCom could serve as a single device for consumption of such broadcast content and can also serve as two-way communication with the teachers for clearing doubts and to submit course work via text messages.

I request you all to please check this need gap and share your feedback.
@Abishek_Muthian

Your idea sounds of sincere intent, but with a five inch (or smaller) screen,  perhaps this device is not the best choice.

   Though a device with the long range wireless capability to be used as a 'hot-spot' for a PineTab(s) or a Pinebook laptops
   "may" be a good low cost option..?
