The is the consumer edition of the Intel Classmate Convertible PC (also called the CLT 2Go Classmate PC). While the hardware is the same, three software bundles can be ordered, depending upon the age of your child. The netbook-sized three-pound wireless computer feature a webcam, touchscreen, USB/SD ports, a six cell battery, and a carrying handle.

Based in San Francisco, PeeWee PC (www.peeweepc.com) offers three bundles -- Pre-K, Early Elementary and Upper Elementary. We counted 10 software choices -- including some older, but well-designed, Learning Company titles such as Millie's Math House and Reader Rabbit. Onboard security software includes a timer and/or Internet filters. Also see the Intel ClassMate. Prices start at $550 with a coupon. While this is a good price for a tablet, keep in mind that there are similarly configured Intel Atom netbooks for less than half the price. See, for example the $250 Acer Aspire (www.acer.com/aspireone/style.html).
