Phone home

Article Abstract:

A new cell phone made by Lincolnshire-based Firefly Mobile is designed for kids 8 to 12 years old, but its features are more liked by their parents as they can program the phone to accept calls from only approved numbers and thus make it hard for users to connect with friends. The question is whether kids that young should be allowed to use cell phones.
