Nickelodeon unveils an array of tween-centric devices

DigitalLife is all about the tweens today, and Nickelodeon isn't about to be left out in the cold -- the venerable network has paired up with Imation to release an array of brightly-colored gear for the budding young geek. In addition to a line of pretty-decent DAPs, it's a pretty broad array of stuff you'd be mortified to own if you're not 7, including Dora / Diego and SpongeBob-branded cameras in resolutions from VGA to 3.0 megapixels, a Dora the Explorer portable CD player, a SpongeBob 15-inch LCD TV and progressive-scan DVD player, and a whack-SpongeBob-to-snooze alarm clock. The best of the bunch appears to be the $100 7-inch picture frame, however, which has a pretty decent-looking screen. Check it all out -- along with some hands-on shots -- in the gallery.

That is one nifty LCD TV. We'll have to wait for the Giorgio Armani-Samsung TV to come out first, then we can compare them.

Ok, I'm going to get one of these, and use it for some devious purpose the creators never even imagined.

Really?

I mean, I thought the see through toaster story was bad, but SpongeBob picture frames?

Come on, have a level of decency.

Dora the explorer is not "tween centric"

Tweens wouldn't be caught dead with this stuff.

You're talking pre-tween here.
