I think that there is better and cheaper than both the iPad and Amplify, for example, Educational Resources’ award winning LearnPad. The LearnPad comes complete with pre-installed content and access to free apps and unlike the iPad, can run Flash-based resources from a range of well known publishers.

I think the idea is very sound, but its also very ambitious. Gonna take lots of coordination to implement. Also it appears to be android based. In general Android tablets are super hack able I am curious how they will deal with that.

While I am not really sold on the idea in a classroom, it would be awesome for remote learning. Could make school very accessible in 3rd world and remote locations.

I think I get about the same impression as you Brandon, though I don’t know all the infrastructure side like you. If the tablet and its apps and ecosystem are as good as that video then the iPad has some very stiff competition.
