I added that because when I tested it seemed to not work well, but I don't
object to removing it and have just done so :)

Why does the vision statement say "but not phones"? I run Sugarizer on my 
iPhone and Ed's Android phone. There are some formatting issues but they are 
easily overcome. In the real world of developing countries, children are 
probably more likely to have access to one of these tiny screens than any 
tablet or computer. They deserve access to Sugar too.
