Another option, I would take a look at either an Internet cafe or a 
friends house with High Speed.  Have them download OOo for you.  Maybe 
get them interested. :)

Hello Isaac,

Thanks for your email, and for your interest in OpenOffice.org.

There's no way to just download Writer, although you could download the
whole suite and just install Writer.  There are reasons for this, but
suffice to say, you just can't do it.

There is hope, however.  AbiWord is a program that, like OpenOffice.org, is
free, open source, cross-platform, MS-compatiblity, and can create ODF
files.  You can download AbiWord from http://www.abiword.com/

Hope that helps!

 I suggest you order a CD containing OOo (OpenOffice.org) from the list 
found in this part of OOo's web site:
http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/index.html#cdrom.
 If you know someone who has a broad band connection, see i f they will 
download it for you and burn it to a CD. This is a second option.
 OOo is a single program with components. Over 75% of the download is 
for the core component which all of the other components use.
