(Oct 17 2003 15:58 GMT) - Douglas Rushkoff: "It's not their lack of technological sophistication that keeps American teens from investing in souped-up cell phones; quite on the contrary, it's their access to technologies that are superior for each of these tasks. They play games on a Playstation, listen to mp3's on an iPod, send messages using a real keyboard, shoot pictures with a camera, and edit video on a computer.
