Forget the other gizmos -- here's the cool toy of CES

If you're desperate for entertainment, you can catch me babbling (in broken English) with James Lileks about the Consumer Electonics Show on today's Newsbreak webcast. CES 2010 has been dominated by news of 3-D technology, tablet computers, e-book readers, thinner TVs, Android-powered phones and Natal full-body motion control for the Xbox 360. But there's always some gee-whiz toy that debuts at CES that grabs geeks' attention. This year's entry is the Parrot AR Drone. It's a remote-controlled "quadricopter" that can be steered using an iPhone or iPod Touch. Special gadgetry helps keep it stable if your hands are unsteady. Best part: A nose camera sends real-time video to your screen while it's in the air. Cool! It's expected later this year for about $500. Check it out:
