Top Wi-Fi Toys

PingMag, an online design magazine based in Tokyo has compiled a quick little list of the top five Wi-Fi toys for home.

1. Nabaztag - A 9" rabbit that can receive text messages, e-mails and any kind of RSS-feeds. Instead of a display it reads out any message in a synthetic voice or plays any audio content your friends emailed to the little bunny.

2. Chumby - A cute little round shaped wi-fi device with a display that can be programed to display just about anything you want.

3. Ambient Orb - A color changing orb that can be synchronized to display changes in everything from the weather to the stock market or even traffic conditions.

4. R100 - With three microphones, two tiny video cameras and six ultra-sonic sensors, this little robot can detect you, listen to your commands and read you your emails aloud. Plus, it can even walk around!

5. PhotoVu - This Wi-Fi enabled photo frame will synchronize itself with your Flickr output and constantly updated itself with the pictures you want to see in a spacious 17" frame. It's also compatible with iPhoto, Photocasts and Picasa.
