some interesting notes which may be useful:
useful common proverbs in dzongkha (Bhutan's native tongue)
GNH, Happiness, Thimpu (capital of Bhutan),
quotes from this wiki entry:
*'Thimphu is the only national capital that does not have traffic lights. When local authorities installed a set of lights a few years ago, people complained that they were too impersonal. The authorities gave in, and took them down.'
*here's another snippet: 'In 1999, the king also lifted a ban on television and the Internet, making Bhutan one of the last countries to have introduced the television. In his speech, he asserted that the television was a critical step to the modernization of Bhutan as well as a major contributor to the country's Gross National Happiness (Bhutan is the only country to measure happiness) but warned against the misuse of the television that may erode traditional Bhutanese values.'
*'Bhutan is the only country in the world to have banned tobacco smoking and the sale of tobacco'

about: SonyEricsson k750i screen size is 176(wide) X 220 (high) with 262,144 colors and maximum framerate of about 20 fps. Bluetooth (spec 2.0 supported by k750i) allows simultaneous connection for multiple devices and a range of approximately 10 metres.
Ideas to develop/sketch/storyboard:
*use wireless comms to 'push' messages/greetings/smileys/etc. to other mobile devices. Map symbols/words/phrases onto individual keys to increase flow/useability.
*use wireless to provide a free and unfiltered local news service. 'word of mouth' style. transmits in a localised range and piggybacks. allows users to project local area specific ideas/thoughts/well-wishings and news onto each other as they pass by. Additionally, it provides another choice for information, coming from the word of mouth of the community rather than a capitalist newspaper.
