great idea and nice presentor
i'm sure they will have a pretty nice product by the time they come out with the retail version

"Toybots, described by its developers at online gaming network SGN as the "Kindle of toys", is an open-source platform that outfits toys with 3G, GPS, and accelerometer capabilities. The Toybots demo product, dubbed "Woozee", is a stuffed bear that stores messages, plays back audio books, provides fun facts whenever the Woozee's owner switches locations, and allows friends and family to deliver virtual gifts."
