Is interesting how low tech can be used to get better penetration than high tech...

It's not particularly surprising given that, in a region without stable electricity for 10+ hours/day for 60% of the population, you're not going to rely on electronics to do the work for you.

Take for instance the numerous stories of people hovering around and sharing power strips when they are available just to charge whatever devices they do have. It's a scarce resource.

Of course is not surprising, but I find it very interesting.. we are relying too much on technology. Or at least, I am.
