Trying to catch them all is more difficult than we originally thought!
Pokemon is back with a vengeance -- on the Nintendo DS handheld console -- and they're kicking off the debut of two new Pokemon titles, Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl, with a huge party at Rockefeller Center in New York City. Thousands are expected at the Nintendo World Store to celebrate the April 22 arrival of the already wildly popular games, which have racked up pre-sales of more than 500,000 units!
The new titles allow players to wirelessly battle with their friends, utilizing built-in Wi-Fi capabilities, and to chat using the DS Microphone. Online interaction with other gamers is limited to designated friends.
The Nintedo DS Microphone, Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl -- in stores April 22.

Women increasingly choose technology over "girlie" things, according to a study released by Oxygen.
The study, entitled "Girls Gone Wired," is a comprehensive look at women and technology. It shows that women have closed the technology gap with men and are itching to purchase the latest technologies. In fact, 77% of women would prefer a plasma TV to a diamond solitaire, and 79% of the female market is interested in, and using, technology.
The study shatters the myth that only urban, trendsetting women are interested in technology. It also finally allows husbands and boyfriends the opportunity to purchase that flat screen for Valentine's Day. Electronics stores should stock up.
