VTech.jpgVTech debuted several new products for the fall at this year's toy fair. From an interactive teddy bear--Bailey--to educational games to consumer electronics, there's something for all the small ones. You can see images of their collection after the jump.

On the left though, are two very cool new gadgets--the Kidizoom Camera and the Gadget, a multimedia device. The Kidizoom Camera is for kids 3 and up and takes photos and video. Kids can also play games and hook it up to at TV to show off their work. Photos and videos can be displayed on your PC or TV, and the included software lets you make wacky edits like merging two pictures, making funny distortions, and more. This can also be done right on the camera, which includes a small LCD display. The camera comes with 16MB of onboard memory and accepts memory cards up to 2GB. The Kidizoom will be available in the fall for $59.99.

The Gadget is for a slightly older set--6 and up--and is an MP3 player with a built-in camera, plus a walkie talkie of sorts--kids within a 2-mile radius can text and chat with each other. It also takes video. Kids can hook this up to their computer or TV to view photos, play games and transfer music. If your friend has a Gadget, you can trade photos from device to device. The Gadget has a high-resolution color screen, with 256MB onboard memory. (Also accepts memory cards up to 2GB.) VTech will sell its own branded memory card as well. Also available in the fall, for $99.99.

VTech also has a large collection of laptops for kids of all ages. Each come with age-appropriate educational games, and yes, they run Windows Vista. (Ha Ha! Gotcha.)
