I agree. There's an assumption sometimes made that people in underdeveloped or relatively remote areas won't be able to take advantage of this technology. Some sons and daughters from those communities however do have get the opportunity to learn away from their homes, either through missionary or community based educational endowments, and so move beyond the opportunities they would have had in their home villages.
Those lucky kids, most of whom will end up moving back to their villages due to a lack of employment opportunities elsewhere, should be the ones to show the rest of their community how to take advantage of the fancy $100 machines.
Maybe in that way the benefit of this initiative would be spread, slowly but surely.
