→What is new for users
=== Ad hoc Networking ===
=== Ad hoc Networking ===
The new ad-hoc networking facilities allows users to connect with each other over wireless in an ad-hoc manner without wireless infrastructure like access point. This is the so called "under a tree scenario". OLPC provided for similar functionality with XO hardware based on a mesh network. [[Features/Ad_hoc_Networking | Ad-hoc networking]] allows Sugar to use this with most wireless hardware. Furthermore it allows you to share an internet connection using the same mechanism.

=== Read ===
The read activity now has support for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPUB Epub] files. For downloading epub content, http://www.feedbooks.com and http://www.epubbooks.com/ are recommended place to start looking. Furthermore this release will let you associate (add and edit) notes with your bookmarks, and has a slightly more useful fullscreen view (you can now get a rough idea of how much battery is left in your laptop/netbook without invoking the frame).
