I'd rather just use a Nexus 7 with Kyte and a heavy duty case for the kids

A stupid idea. And i never let little kids play with my phones. I think 15+ should have a phone... I see kids with iPhones and BlackBerries. What has the world come to?

While this technology still seems relatively new to us, it's just part of everyday life for kids growing up now and should be embraced rather than ignored. I had a SNES when I was a child but still played outside too.
