This evening WowWee introduced its latest homebound robot, the Spyball. It comes on the heels of Rovio, a robot armed with a webcam so that you can drive it around remotely to watch your home while you're away. The Spyball can also be controlled remotely, but instead of scooting around the house on several wheels, it rolls (stealthy!). It seems like a fun way for kids to wreak havoc—you can control it through the Internet, but can also make it work with many Wi-Fi enabled devices, including the PSP and Nintendo DS.

The Spyball should hit stores in the fall of this year, and though WowWee says that SpyBall's price is still TBD, it should cost less than the Rovio, which goes for $300.

WowWee also introduced a series of three micro projectors. The WowWee Cinemin microprojectors will be powered by Texas Instruments' DLP Technology, the same tech inside Dell's M109S. The projectors are designed to work with iPods and iPhones, so it's possible that the devices, which have until now been marketed to businessmen giving presentations on the road, could hit the backseats of minivans everywhere sometime soon. —S.E.
