...Little Surfer Girl I was in utter shock after reading Lev Grossman's "Girl Meets Game" [Feb. 11]. At a time when we are worried about teenagers on MySpace, Grossman talks about how great it is that his 3 1/2-year-old daughter can entertain herself on the Internet.

Better yet, he could have stressed that the best way to entertain a young mind is by reading books. Jody Weissler, CEO, Childrensbookradio.com, Woodland Hills...
...Tech for Tots Lev Grossman needn't fear unnecessarily that at 3 his daughter is too young for computer gaming [Feb. 11]. Not all young gamers go on to become computer nerds or serial killers.

I hate my conventional cell phone with its 100-page, four-language manual that I can't begin to understand. I've used the iPhone without having to look at the manual.
