 Yup, thats the point. The BrainPod is putting it all together in a standardised environment.

(Thanks for the links, some I was not aware of)

The BrainPod has been discussed before, see One Laptop Per Child [1] and 
perhaps Project C [2] and Project Gutenberg [3], Wikibooks [4], the 
Open Library Project [5], the Internet Archive [6], and then there's 
lots of software out there like OpenCourseWare [7] and digital online 
blackboards. Really all you need is to just package all of this stuff 
together, maybe Edubuntu? [8]. And then you need a cheap way to make 
the machinery ... or just port it like crazy to everything. :)
