of leapfrog introduces "baby blackberry"

Leapfrog introduces “Baby BlackBerry”: Leapfrog introduces a learning toy called The Text and Learn which looks like a Blackberry.

First there was the well known E*Trade commercial with the talking baby bragging about how his BlackBerry keeps him connected, now some say educational toy company Leapfrog has taken the skit a bit farther with its new Text and Learn toy, which many are calling the “Baby BlackBerry.“

It’s not hard to see why as it does look like a brightly colored version of the popular smartphone. Along with the usual educational games meant to teach spelling, the toy also offers a built in calendar the company says is meant to teach kids the days of the month, a “pretend” web browser, and yes, even the ability to send text messages to a puppy “guide” named Scout.

The Text and Learn will be on toy store shelves this summer and retail for $25. Hmm..what’s next, the Baby iPhone?
