<div dir="ltr">Using hand held PDA's, phones etc is a good idea. If the hand held is windows (and Apple I think ) and has wifi it can be connected to the wireless network. Getting files like pictures and movies off phones can be complex but having a few USB
Bluetooth dongles are helpful. iPods are neat but I think you should not limit a school to Apple hardware - try to be elastic as possible.
