Editorial Review:

While it's true that you probably haven't been spending your life silently pining for a chance to play 20 Questions against the detached head of R2D2, this toy, which more or less simulates that experience, provides that opportunity. The premise is pretty simple: think of something and then answer the machine's various questions using buttons marked "yes", "no", "sometimes", and "unknown". A floating display inside the domed top of the toy and an "undo" button provide some added appeal but it's really the same old game of 20 Questions you've been playing for years. While it would appear that the human would have an advantage in this contest and that a machine couldn't deduce the right answer with yes or no questions, we found ourselves losing the game an unsettling amount of the time. /i>

Batman Deluxe Powerwing Laptop

Editorial Review:

Holy laptop, Batman! The Power Wing learning computer is a great way to introduce five-year-olds on up to the wonders of computer technology. The sleek black unit features expanding wings and a blue bat silhouette. But as with most things in life, it's what's inside that counts. The laptop (which does not have internet or data storage capabilities, by the way) includes 25 games and activities related to math, words, memory, logic, and music. A full computer keyboard with cursor pad allows players to enter their Batman code, play games, check their scores, check out awesome animations, and basically challenge their minds in a whole lot of fun ways! There's even a flashlight and high-contrast keyboard for those times when you just have to play in the dark. The working part of the monitor is actually pretty tiny, although it's surrounded by cool graphics and useful game codes. Three AA batteries required (included). /i>
