yes I just thought it might be interesting to hear about what they were
doing in bristol - BW were mentioned at one of the meetings and I looked
them up - seems like they do quite a lot to promote FOSS and Linux and I
thought it might be interesting to have someone talk to us about the
'urban' experience and how successful they have been in letting people
know about Linux.
 and it also linked in with a discussion about BB, wireless, digital
poverty and the problem of access for certain sections of the community 

which links to what Andrew has flagged up

I note that there are no prices on their website  - from what I have
read about this project I got the impression that it was going to be
quite pricey - maybe not?
