Ah, the first of this year’s Christmas gifts has arrived. From China!

I saw these Walkie Bits on Time Magazine’s list of the best inventions of 2005, and I knew they would make perfect gifts for some of the kids I happen to know. So I set out to find them. The trouble is that they don’t sell them in the US yet.
