Having some minor experience in dealing with third world countries and starving children, I fear that the drug lords, and rebels that run these places, would not like this idea, and would be inclined to do damage and stop something like this.
The problem is that people approach this too much from the extremes. There are different degrees of poverty, different degrees of (under)development. This laptop is obviously not the technology that is (initially) going to be deployed in some emergency refugee camp, in warlord scenarios or somewhere in the middle of the bush. I imagine it will start in stable regios with at least SOME infrastructure available already.
