Leapfrog's LeapsterGS is a big improvement over previous Leapster models.

1. The LeapsterGS has a much better display. You don't realize it until you compare it side-by-side with a previous generation Leapster. The screen is about 20% larger (3.5" diag), and has much better resolution and color.

2. LeapsterGS is much faster. You really notice a reduction in the screen-to-screen lag time, boot ups, shut downs, etc.

3. LeapsterGS is much more compact. It is a little bit longer than a Leapster 2, but half as thick, and 1 inch shorter.

4. The sound on the LeapsterGS is much better.

5. Battery compartment access no longer requires a screwdriver like previous models did. Battery life is also slightly better.

6. LeapsterGS includes a camera that takes pictures and video. Earlier versions of Leapster do not.

7. LeapsterGS uses LeapFrog Connect to download games over the internet. More on this feature later.
