Wii 2 is the temporary name we've been using to describe Nintendo's successor to Wii. This is not the final name for the console. We've heard the name "Stream" suggested as a final product name for the system, but Nintendo has yet to comment one way or the other. The publisher has confirmed the system is in development, however.
LeapFrog Enterprises has announced today their latest in their line
of products - the LeapPad Explorer(TM). This new multifunctional
learning tablet is made for children four and up and caters to the new
generation of learning, digital reading and personal creativity.
The LeapPad Explorer (TM) will be available beginning in Summer of
2011 and is sure to be a toy-of-the-year as was the Leapster Explorer in
2010.
