    The leappad arrived two weeks ago and Mr W earned enough stickers to get it this weekend.

    He spent all day Sunday playing with it and has most of it figured out.

    I played with it for an hour last night and have to admit its pretty cool.

    Santa will be bringing one here, as well!

    My son wants the new iPhone. And a Dell laptop like his daddy's.

    He would love one of these, but I don't think Santa will be bringing it to him this year. Maybe next.

    I want to wait until the reviews are all in.

    I was considering this for my ds6, but when we looked at one, he said it is for babies. I think the images, voices and slower loading speed where the main issues. There is no WiFi and apps load slower due to the lower processing speed, additional apps are not cheap. IMHO I think it would be great for advanced two or four year old, but children who are used to iPhone apps, iPad or regular laptops most likely will feel like my ds.
