Cellphones for pre-teens
We were under the misconception that you didn't need to do anything to convince teenagers and pre-teens to use cellphones, but apparently worried that they're missing out on this critical part of the market, AT&T Wireless is sponsoring classes at science museums to indoctrinate kids into the ways in which they too can join the cellular revolution. Something must be working because a survey shows that nearly one-third of 8- to 10-year-olds have cellphones.
