The company said on Monday the tablet, dubbed Tabeo, will sell for $149.99 and will be loaded with child-friendly apps and integrated controls that allow parents to customize levels of Internet access for each family member. It will be available starting October 21. Toys R Us, which was taken private in 2005 by KKR & Co, Bain Capital and Vornado Realty Trust in a $6.6 billion deal, is facing tough competition from rivals including Amazon.com, Target Corp and Wal-Mart Stores Inc, which often sell toys at lower prices. The company said the 7-inch, multi-touch table will have wi-fi capability, a 4GB flash memory, and will come with 50 free, preinstalled apps aimed at children. Educational toymaker LeapFrog Enterprises Inc also has a tablet aimed at children, called the LeapPad. In the adult tablet world, last week Amazon launched its new Kindle Fire tablet , while Apple Inc has been rumored to be working on a smaller version of the iPad, which will be cheaper. LeapFrog shares, which fell as much as 11 percent on Monday morning, were at $8.50, down 6 percent, on the New York Stock Exchange. The launch of Tabeo and the possibility of increased competition pushed LeapFrog's stock down, Ascendiant Capital Markets analyst Edward Woo said.
