For all those parents and grandparents looking for a reason to justify that smartphone their teen is begging for, leading test prep provider Kaplan and software company Handmark® may have just come up with the "killer app": a better college education...Kaplan Mobile SAT/PSAT-ACT 2005 is compatible with nearly all popular platforms and devices - suitable for most Palm OS-powered devices, Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs and Smartphones, as well as Symbian, BREW and Java mobile phones."</i><br /><br /><i>Poor teenagers!</i> Now their parents would buy them Smartphones with the expectation that it will improve the test scores. I wonder if Smartphones would still be considered as a <i>cool-hip</i> toy by the teenagers, if the parents buy them on the condition that Kaplan software will be loaded on them. Or maybe this will help drive up the Smartphone sales among the teenagers because now they can justify the purchase. ;-)
