Finally after 1 month OLPC-AF got 10 XO's for test lab for its office in PAIWASTOON from the Ministry of Education Afghanistan. These XO's are used for experiments and testings in OLPC-AF Office by its technical team, inorder to develop and test new activities and software for XO's.

Also we got two Educational Trainers from MoE as well, for training master trainers, who may train teachers of projected pilot schools.

In its first deployment plan OLPC-AF provides 900 XO's to every single kid in a school in Jalalabad city of Ningarhar province. The school name has still not been declared.

Localization of XO's into Afghan languages (Dari & Pashto) is 97% finished, now loading files into online translation software and waiting for MoE, MoCIT & ACSA to approve translations. Then that will be tested and uploaded to the XO machines before the deployment. Our software developer are developing a literacy game for Dari and Pashto languages together with Afghan satellite teachers. Our Technical Trainers and User Service Officers are almost finished with documents for support of teachers; e.g. Teacher & Student User Manuals, online libraries etc.
