VTech Storio 2

Right then guys and girls, do any of you have a VTech Storio 2 in your households? If so would you recommend them?
They are marketed as a good educational tool to help develop reading skills but also as a platform for games, creating photos and videos, etc.
With Christmas coming up it is a potential idea for SD4, however my partner and I aren't sure whether to bother with it.
On one side, SD4 seems to be loosing her interest in reading books. My partner never incorporated a book before bed routine but would read to her daily (he was FT CP from birth to 2 when BM gained custody). No idea what happens at BMs house but SD simply doesnt hold the same interest with books as she used to. My partner thinks something like the storio might be a good way of getting some reading going again.
Like most youngsters if given the choice she would sit watching tv all day, but since my partner now only has her EOWE and one day in the week he limits tv to a little in the morning and a little before bed. I have been in the picture since SD was 2, back then I had an ipad with some toddler apps on which she would play so theres no doubt she would enjoy playing with it but when you are encouraging a child to use their imagination to play with their toys and then hand them a tablet is a bit contradictory.
Technically the Vtech storio says its for ages 3 till 9 so shes in the right age range, I just wonder what peoples opinions are when it comes to these "educational" toys.
At the moment we are thinking we are probably best off avoiding this type of toy for as long as possible, keep trying with the reading with real books since lets face it, if theres a choice of reading or playing games on that tablet shes not going to pick reading.
