When plugged in and charging, the charging indicator light on the LeapPad should glow yellow/orange. In September 2011, LeapFrog won the Platinum Award for LeapPad(TM) from the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio.How do you know when your LeapPad 2 is fully charged? award in 2000, sponsored by the Toy Industry Association. LeapPad won the first-ever People's Choice Toy of the Year (T.O.T.Y.) award, as well as the Educational T.O.T.Y. The tablet range of the LeapPad also competed with VTech's InnoTab line of interactive tablet computers. However, due to the lower cost of the system, Publications International's offering remained competitive with the LeapPad. Publications International later introduced the Story Reader and My First Story Reader system, which is more limited in function in that it will only read the story as the user turns the page, and features less interactive features: The Story Reader completely lacks any interactive functions, while the My First Story Reader only has simple quizzes answered through the use of three buttons at the bottom of the device. However, the system faced limitations in that the book itself is bound to the reader and stylus and thus cannot be interchanged. The ActivePoint and Magic Wand titles operated on a similar principle to the LeapPad. whose specialty included electronic children books with sound modules. The LeapPad also faced competition from publisher Publications International, Ltd. However, despite the improvements and backing from popular brands like Nelvana and Scholastic, the PowerTouch did not catch on with the public as widely as the LeapPad did although it does have its share of followers. The PowerTouch Learning System was far more advanced than the LeapPad in many ways, requiring no stylus to operate as it uses a touch-sensitive area, and even the ability to detect page changes automatically via a set of infrared sensors on the top of the device(which also imposed a limitation on how many pages a book for the system can offer). The popularity of the LeapPad spawned a few competitions, most notably with Mattel and Fisher-Price who launched the PowerTouch Learning System in 2003, and later with the Power Touch Baby. The sensor works as a capacitor and measures the amount of current flowing through corner electrodes into a plate beneath the table top, and uses that information to triangulate the location of the stylus on the table top. The LeapPad is a computer with electrographic sensor.
The unit also featured a soft pad underneath to allow for the device to sit comfortably on the parents' or toddler's lap.
