Melinda Gates told Vogue magazine: “There are very few things that are on the banned list in our household. But iPods and iPhones are two things we don’t get for our kids.”
According to the UK Daily Telegraph Mrs Gates admitted to being swayed by Apple’s iPhone device, which combines a touch-screen music player and web browser with a fully featured mobile phone. “Every now and then I look at my friends and say ‘Ooh, I wouldn’t mind having that iPhone’,” she said.
