I'm not interested in my kids being "ahead of the game" but I don't think any product can do that.
My dd had a leap-pad and liked it for a short time, but soon lost interest. I should say that she got it just as she began to read on her own though, and she really preferred to read on her own.
My ds has a writing desk which he LOVES! He tells everyone that he's learning "curses" (cursive!)
Dd now has an I-Quest which she likes a lot--it's sort of like a trivia game to her, since she doesn't use any of the textbooks that it refers to.
