4.0 out of 5 stars Best thing I've bought for the kids this year, June 23, 2006

I watched and waited for this item since Christmas and it was worth it. As soon as we opened the boxes, my 9-year-old twin boys were hooked. They have been playing with the Touch Tablet for hours non-stop. There is so much to do. They don't realize that they are learning as they play. I recommend this item. A bit expensive to buy 2 like I did, but worth every penny.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best present ever!, January 15, 2007

Santa Claus outdid himself this year...for only $[...]! This 'computer' is great- it does everything! It even has a word processor that can hook up to our computer or printer. My daughter is 7 1/2 and already good at 'real' computers so her computer teacher suggested we go with the one for the oldest age range. I'm glad we did. There are so many learning games on this computer-over 100 (and each gets progressively harder as needed) that she won't outgrow this for a long time. It has science, Spanish, math and logic,geography,social studies,a creative studio,and some 'cool tools' like an alarm clock, phone book,and jokes to name a few. It looks just like a real laptop...same size/color etc.. so in her mind it is a 'real' computer and not a baby toy that will be cast aside.

This review is from: Vtech - Touch Tablet PC (Toy)

I purchased 3 units this past Christmas. The idea was to help bring up my nephew's grades, but I couldn't just buy 1. With 3 school age kids, sharing is non-existent! The kids were very impressed, and so was I. The mere weight of them is astonishing. The computer is in fact a 'REAL' kids computer! My daughter told her teacher about it, and the request was made for her to bring it to school. My daughter is now using this 'COMPUTER' in class! The teacher is so impressed with it, that she is getting them for her grandchildren. At the end of the school year, I have a surprise for her...I am donating one to her class!!!

I love this product.

My nephew has gone from D's and F's, to B's and C's.

Thank You, Thank YOU, THANK YOU! VTech for such a wonderful product!!!
