Corona, CA - (October 25, 2013) – The rise of gadgets is ushering in a new generation of kids who are growing up digital, according to a study by Nielsen. The study indicates that 70% of children in tablet-owning households use a tablet computer. And even more revealing---55% of parents say that children used the tablets while traveling.

“DVDs will eventually go the way of the 8-track,” according to Walt Detlefsen, Vizualogic National Sales Manager. “But our customers have told us they still want older media options (like DVDs) as well as new media options that tablet computers provide. That’s why we introduced the SmartLogic Tablet/DVD system. It offers the best of both worlds.”
