Leapfrog is poised to announce it’s new Leapster Explorer in early June.  Retailing at $69.99, the Linux-based touchscreen computer is an e-book reader and a gaming console.  Kids will be able to connect to LeapWorld, download apps, create animations and play games, among other things.  Parents can monitor children’s activity using Leapfrog’s Learning Path software.

LeapFrog has not officially announced the product, but company investors got the scoop from CEO Jeffrey Katz who confirmed that the Explorer will be on market shelves “around the first of July.”
