increasingly shunned by kids moving on to fancy cell phones and iPods
at younger ages, Toys R Us (TOY) says it might shed its toy business
in a major restructuring.

10/28/2003 11:09 PMWhat? You thought I was selling my older hardware for the fun of it?
Things I love about Kwyjibo, my new Sony Clie UX50: size, shape,
weight, screen, features, functionality, convenience, power cradle.
Things I don't love about Kwyjibo: (1) it relies on the Sony Memory
Suck; (2) No keyboard navigation; (3) unmanageable USB port cover; (4)
no way to flip between portrait / landscape mode; (5) deep reliance on
ass-nasty QuickTime codecs; and (6) poor out-of-the-box Outlook
integration. Even with these grievances aired, I must admit that I've
been quite pleased with "it" so far. Then again, who's ever completely
happy with their PDA?...

remotely interesting there before. But, you know, there's always a
first time... The first item that came up... Well, let's just say it

Toys That Connect With TVs
Toys That Connect With TVs
02/18/2004 07:58 PMIt seems like an odd time for "new toy" stories to be coming out.
They usually appear as we swing into the holiday season, not two
months later. Anyway, it seems that despite years and years of failed
attempts at making toys that interact with TV (Microsoft's Barney
doll...), companies are at it again, but this time,
they think kids will really want toys that
interact with the TV. Of course, this faces the same problem that
has come up every time people think up this idea. Most people watch
TV. They consume it. They don't interact with it, and adding a toy
in the middle doesn't necessarily improve things. Of course, there is
an element of getting kids to read/sing/clap along with a TV, but it's
not clear if the toy really enhances that process. Meanwhile, it
seems like many kids are less interested in TV and more interested in
the internet. Of course, it won't be long before we have toys that
interact with the internet as well (I'm sure some are already out
there).

be baring fruit, Matt Rardon reports findning the latest wave of
Unleashed figures (Chewbacca, Luke Pilot, and Clone Trooper) at
his local comic shop in the San Francisco area. We had heard Diamond
Comics had started to ship these out last week, looks like they are
starting to hit the floor. Happy hunting!

08/14/2004 11:22 AMAccording to trujedi, you should start looking for green tagged 50%
off items on clearance, either already tagged or being tagged during
the next week or so. BUT, the sales are already in their computers so
you can take an item to their price checker and see if it's marked
down. If it is, more info will say "50% off green tag". This includes
MANY video games in the electronics area, EP2 Deluxe figures, EP2
Beasts and even the talking Yoda, but he thinks that's a mistake.
