Why the LeapPad couldn't survive the iPad

Original: Why the LeapPad couldn’t survive the iPad

A look back at the LeapPad, LeapFrog's dedicated children's tablet, and why it lost out to the iPad. The device once targeted families who wanted a cheap, kid-safe alternative, but the iPad's versatility, app ecosystem and falling prices left purpose-made kids' tablets with little room to compete.

Why now: Interest in how dedicated kids' tablets were squeezed out by mainstream tablets like the iPad.
