Steve, great points. I see a real need for mobile technology in small NGO’s and CBO’s in south africa, especially those engaged in Home-Based Care. The ability to connect and collaborate on data and treatment by mobile means has yet to be fully realized, mainly due to cost and the rather extreme poverty that limits CBO’s.
