The annual Consumer Electronics Show, hosted in Las Vegas each year, is a fun time for those who enjoy way out gadgets. Hopefully, one day soon, I’ll get a chance to attend but in the meantime I have to be content with reading the reviews and updating my budget to make room for some of the new technology.

Apparently the most talked about item at the 2007 CES was the Elvis Presley robotic bust by Wow Wee. Wow Wee is the same company that sells a lifesize robotic chimpanzee head. The chimp head isn’t selling too well at $149 and I’m not sure if they have a winner or a loser with the singing Elvis for $349.

I’m a fan of robotics but Elvis isn’t going to be a guest in my office any more than the chimpanzee head. I’m saving my money for Pleo, a cute little robotic dinosaur.
