I actually enjoyed the huge leaps in technology from one Young Wizards book to the next, while the kids weren't getting noticeably older - it added a fun new dimension (I read them all in a row over a couple of months, just before the most recent one came out).

But I do think it'd ... well, not so much confuse readers as just throw many of them out of the story, so while I am generally not in favour of updating books just to reflect changes in modern society or technology, for this specific book series updated versions do make sense IMHO.
