Off topic alert (I'd use the emoticon, but it looks too grumpy)
You're quite probably right BUT those devices do have some good going for them - they are helping some youngsters engage with learning who might otherwise have fared less well. One of the areas the company I work for is involved in mobile learning (not in delivering it to the children, but to the teachers, researching the technology etc).
