I don't know about "cool", but I just came from an Apple store here in Denver -- went to buy an Apple TV -- and it was packed.

Older user still prefer Apple products, it is possible when these kids grow up they may switch to Apple. There is no doubt that performance of Apple products is really good and that is what people wants from a gadget.
There is no single reason for kids not having that much interest in Apple products, there are many. Google and Windows are offering attractive smartphones, tablets, hybrids, fablets, and more in different ranges and models. Kids are just trying the new offerings. |

Random: My niece turns 2 this month. She can already grab my parents' iPhones, open the games she likes (she's a fan of "Angwy Birds"), and navigate the photos section. She will swipe through the pics, playing videos as she comes across them until they bore her -- after which she'll swipe again. She even understands how to swipe backwards if she passed up something. (Granted, her parents have Droid phones, and she can work those pretty well, too.) I think it's testament to the simplicity of design we have gotten in smartphones that such a young child understands the basic mechanism. (Though I cannot begin to imagine her figuring out a windows phone. ) |

I like windows phones a lot. I just don't think they're quite as intuitive. To me it goes: 1. iOS 2 Android 3. WP8 For simplicity. |
