Prepare Yourself for the Return of the Furby

The Furby is returning to a Walmart near you.

For $60, you can purchase a new and improved version of the annoying toy which was banned from US Government offices. This time, the Furby has an iOS application associated with it, among other improvements.

From Endgadget:

The latest addition to the line marks a much more significant update for our old furry pal, bringing him up-to-date for a generation growing up with smartphones and tablets, with revamped aesthetics, new innards and an appetite for Apple's iPad. We managed to get our hands on the squirming and verbose little Mogwai-esque creature -- four of them in fact -- for a bit, when Hasbro popped by our office with a furry blue army packed in a duffel bag. Check out some impressions of the reborn furball after the break.
