[K12OSN] Using iBooks as Thin Clients

[Henry Hartley <henryhartley westat com>]

The person heading up our middle school effort (the school has been adding a
grade each year since opening with Pre-K, K and 1st in 1999 and we're adding
sixth and seventh next year) would like to have Apple iBooks for each middle
school student.  The idea is to provide a wireless network that that they
can use them in class and at home (off the network, obviously).  I don't
think anything has been purchased yet and she is one of the three who will
be at the meeting on Friday.  I'm sure she will ask about incorporating them
into whatever system we use.  Is it possible (easy would be great but as
long as it can be done, I'll be happy) to use these machines as thin clients
on a K12LTSP system?  They would need to dual-boot between K12LTSP and their
regular Mac OS, I suppose, or they would be worthless outside the school.
Are there any issues other than speed with using wireless connections?
