Children's toys aren't always our top priority, but this one looks interesting. The Vtech Nitro Vision is a cartridge-based computer than hooks up to your television. Children can play games that teach math, English, Spanish and science through a wireless keyboard and mouse.

The Nitro Vision appears to be a nice $50 gift idea for any bright, future Gizmodo readers out there ages six and up. Or for anyone who'd like to give their kid a head start to mastering the official interface of porn.

<![CDATA[ V-Tech i5871 Cordless 5.8GHz Phone ]]>

Yeah, yeah, we know, you're using a cellphone at home, but not everybody's doing that, and not everybody's using the phone company's voicemail, either. For those Luddites who still want to have chic gear, V-Tech is stepping in with some nice-looking phones lately.

This i5871 is an expandable 5.8GHz system where you plug in one base station and you can add seven handsets. It's got a color handset display and a pretty cool-looking base station, too, that's also a digital answering machine.

This $130 model, along with the V-Tech 2335 we showed you the other day, proves that cellphones don't get to have all the fun. If you're sick of crappy cellphone reception at home, you might consider the advantages of good old land lines.

Pssst! Get it at Amazon for $130.

<![CDATA[ V-Tech V Mix gz 2335 Cordless Phone ]]>

Here's V-Tech's stylish cordless phone, and you can almost hear its designers wondering why cellphones get to have all the fun. Take your pick of silver, blue, and red interchangeable face plates and base plates, and add in polyphonic ring tones and a flashing visual ringer and you end up with a sprightly design for a cheap land line 2.4GHz cordless. Not bad for $31.
