Toys R Us to Introduce Mobile Tablets to Children
Tabeo geared toward kids as young as 5
In a storm of mobile product launches emerges a new competitor: tablets for tiny tots.

The release by the toy retailing giant highlights the race to grab the attention and wallets of the youngest tech consumers who are quickly adopting smartphones and other gadgets.
