 NEW YORK (AP) - If children didn't get their fill of high-tech toys during the 2005 holiday season, they should brace themselves for more wizardry later this year.
With young consumers growing out of toys faster and preferring iPod digital music players and video games, the nation's toy makers are working harder to come up with more high-tech products, particularly robotic playmates.
Such robotic toys, which are even more life-like than a year ago, are among the thousands of toys to be featured at American International Toy Fair, officially beginning Sunday. This year's robotic lineup includes a life-sized miniature pony that responds to touch, a Barbie doll that follows the child's dance moves and a robot made from a Lego building set that can be programmed.
