The Neediest Dolls In The World

captinsano writes "Forbes.com is taking a look at, 'The Needies,' the newest interactive stuffed toys, each one of which is fitted with an internal microprocessor and wireless antenna. They beg for attention (with varying levels of perversity) and when you finally pick one up the others complain loudly ("Throw him! Throw him!"). They're a cool example of the coming wave of wireless toys --and interestingly enough they are being designed for adults, not just children. There's a funny video showing the dolls in action, as well." These toys were originally designed after their NYU student creators and modeled after the horrible behavior they saw themselves exhibiting while trying to come up with a school project.

Real Players sucks and anyone using it is a idiotic consumer that is incapable of independent thoughts. All I had to see is that the video was in Real Player format to know that the Dolls are totally stupid products for exactly the type of people who use Real Player. Go Slashdot! Keep those stupid ads (articles?) coming!
