Jeffrey Dietel, vice president, wireless devices, Verizon said –

With the addition of the GizmoTab, Verizon has created a portfolio of family products that parents can trust and their children will enjoy for years to come.

Since the launch of the Verizon Gizmo product line, we spent a lot of time listening to what our customers wanted in a kid’s tablet. Parents told us that they wanted trusted and relevant content that would engage their children and the ability to add their own content. The GizmoTab meets both of those needs. We’ve created a great tablet kids and parents will love.
