That sounds fantastic and you could run it on a small solar panel and a big capacitor. Did you get any feedback about how it went in the field?

I know it was tested in some "trial classrooms" and the response was very positive but I've left that company since and don't know the status. It was part of a UN programme as well.

But essentially it's absolutely possible to have a little cigarette box thing with most of the worlds knowledge at your fingertips, completely offline, and it doesnt require LLMs but just traditional information retrieval techniques.
