PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless Lim Ding Wen, a fourth grader in Singapore, has taken up writing applications for Apple's all-popular iPhone, his latest of which is called "Doodle Kids," aptly named for its doodling or painting capabilities. He began his computer experience at the ripe age of two and has a good twenty programming projects under his belt. He is fluent in six programming languages. His father also writes iPhone apps, and they often compare statistics to see whose is more popular-- as it is, Lim's app has over 4,000 downloads. Do you think perhaps we could be calling him "King Ding" in thirty years when he's taken over the digital world?

How about that? Not many pupil speak fluently in their mother's tongue at that age...

I knew how to put a 5 1/4" disk in our Commodore 64 system - when I was younger than a year old and still only crawling. Do you consider that "computer experience"? I don't...
