Charlie don't surf - yet

"Nicholas Negroponte, the brains behind the One Laptop Per Child initiative, is detailing a new plan to inspire the world’s poorest children to teach themselves to read using tablet computers.

Negroponte said that within a year his team would be dropping tablets into remote villages by helicopter – without staff – and letting children teach themselves how to use them.

Sorry but I can't help thinking of Wagner being played through loudspeakers and some Yank shouting "Charlie don't surf - yet".
