*Btw, this really points out the problem with Harry’s fame coming and going. Why are girls only after him now?
True, you'd think someone other than Ginny would have sent him a Valentine.
*Also, why is it a wireless? Do wizards even know what a wire is?
In British English, "wireless" is an older term for radio, presumably to distinguish it from the earlier telegraph and telephone. Not that wizards ever had these, but Rowling never saw a bit of alliteration that she didn't like.
