Strictly speaking, the absence of network connectivity is not germane (BSVs,
autorun...): and I seem to remember that you could buy Vtech programs on
some sort of removable media. That would be a bit of a stretch, though. :)

My daughter had an exquisitely safe laptop made by Vtech.

My daughter's Leapster has yet to be attacked either. Of 
course it's not on any networks but let's not make excuses 
for these things. Obviously the absence of attacks is an 
indication of secure design.
