The all-important annual hot holiday toy list from trade magazine Toy Wishes was released to breathless retailers and eager parents, but the fascinating factor for us was that it confirmed how tech-savvy children have become: seven out of the 12 toys featured to be this year's most popular are hooked to either a computer or TV screen. In fact, the most popular toys are high-tech updates of such classics as Barbie, Nerf, and Rubik's Cube, as well as a giant magnifying eyeball (pictured above) and a singing Hannah Montana doll.

"Today, kids have iPods and cell phones," said Jim Silver, editor-in-chief of Toy Wishes, which based its list on the publication's review of thousands of toys and interviews with retailers. "We live in a different world of how children play."
