BYOT - Bring Your Own Technology

Went to a technology meeting with representatives from many districts in NJ today and an impromptu discussion on implementing a BYOT program in public school districts started. We discussed many topics such as specific policies, providing for students that don't have the means to bring their own technology, and training for teachers to harness this technology. I think that in a short time, all schools will be encouraging students to bring their own technology to the classrooms...it will be the only way that many districts will be able to afford to implement a 1-to-1 technology program in schools. Thoughts?
