Booo. I was expecting more from Fitbit. They were doing better by NOT trying to compete with Apple or Samsung in the smart watch world. I’m not impressed and neither are investors. Their stock is down 11% after the announcement.

In this case, it’s devolving...

Came here to post a similar reply. Nailed it.

Had one of these, too. So awesome. Went back and forth between this and my chemistry set... and Lego, Erector Sets, Estes rockets, etc.

These sets are terrible... as are the Chima, Bionicle, Ninjago and Minecraft ones. I realize there are kids that love these weird ones, but I’ll only buy my kids the “normal” sets like City, Castle, Star Wars, Creator, Technic, etc.

You guys are missing the true cause of this accident: manpris.

What’s the point of living on Mars? Even if we (or something else) completely devastate Earth (nukes, human overpopulation, climate change, natural disasters, etc.) it is still, like, a million times more inhabitable than any other planet in our solar system. If we want to have a planet to save the human race or…

Geebus! A 6 Plus in that case? Did you have to modify your pockets to be able to carry it around? Does the case come with a shoulder strap or something? I have a 6 Plus with no case and it still annoys me whenever it’s in my pocket.

You win.

Crazy tech and a crazy expensive camera and that video is all they can manage for a demo? Looks like a 3rd grader put it together.

Love the Brigadoon reference. I wonder how many people on this website have actually seen that movie?

1.1G of acceleration?! So lemme get this straight... If a Tesla Model S started down a 1/4-mile track and I jumped off a 1/4-mile high building at the same time, the Tesla would finish its race before I went splat?

This is awesome. Thanks for the laugh.

Yeah, this list is awful... aside from the Lego inclusion. Anything with a screen or that requires a screen should be removed. Summer for kids should be about being outside, getting dirty and poking things with sticks. I realize this is a gadget list for kids, but you can do better. Model rockets? Water toys?…

I had one of these in high school. It was my dad’s but he had trouble getting in and out of it because it’s so low. It’s a really fun car to drive and handles rather well. I’d call it quick, but not fast. More fun for smooth back roads than the highway. It’s very light, so the little 4 cylinder is fine. Two or three…
