Celestron's NexStar 102GT, for instance, debuting this month with a $400 price tag, includes a motorized mount to track objects as Earth rotates (so you don't have to keep recentering the scope) and a preprogrammed celestial tour to guide you to the coolest objects visible each night, based on the location you input. The bad news: Celestron's tech support doesn't work nights. (Earth to Celestron: Wake up.)

AskMen is aimed at men, but any woman who wants insight into the male psyche (and refuses...
...animated cartoons and mazes onscreen. The I Message Girls Barbie ($25, available in May) from Mattel comes with a toy cell phone that can send instant messages to the doll and receive replies. Of course, no toy show would be complete without a gaggle of robots. One of the coolest is the remote-controlled Robosapien ($100, available this summer), a 14-in.-tall bot from WowWee that can walk, dance, yawn, stretch, pick up an object and throw it and even do karate...
