Interesting article, Kevin. We are not doing enough though better than you use to. Two main obstacles block us 1) lack of accessible computers/netbooks/handhelds etc. 2) a balanced mindset and working environment between security and allowing for creativity.
Steve,
You are right about that balance between security and creativity. I believe it takes real commitment to find a middle ground in which to innovate.
Kevin,
I have similar interests in hand held devices in the classroom. Here's one response I got from the UK. They're doing quite a bit. Some good links here. I also got some good links from South Africa if you're interested.
