Dear listers,<br>
Prof. Kamau, University of Nairobi's engineering school has successifully reverse engineered the converter box for digital TV. Those willing to visit the fab lab next week should register with Awiti in my office. His e-mail is <a href="mailto:nawiti@information.go.ke"><a href="mailto:nawiti@information.go.ke">nawiti@information.go.ke</a></a>.<br>
<br>
I am hoping soon we can reverse engineer the ipad so that we can use it to distribute e-books to all kids in the country and avoid this theft of textbooks.<br>
<br>
