Not long ago, I got the same question from two friends: Should I buy an iTouch for my kid’s birthday? Now, ignoring the fact that both friends got the name wrong — both of them meant the iPod touch, Apple’s iPhone-like music player — my answer to one was yes and the other no. I didn’t have to think much about this recommendation. That’s because one kid was turning 7, too young, the other was turning 16, not a problem, and the iPod touch is essentially a powerful handheld computer for games, web access, email, video, and music. In short, it’s a fun, entirely irresistible distraction machine.
