So the Christmas holiday has passed, and you're basking in the glow of your new tech toys. Or are you? If you didn't exactly get what was on your wish list this holiday season, take matters into your own hands and hit the stores — there's plenty of gadgets out there that are worthy of your holiday gift cards.
Sony's Party-Shot Dock Plays Photographer For You
As much as I love playing photographer at a good soiree, I feel like I end up missing some good moments with a camera in front of my face. So imagine my curiosity when I learned about the Sony Party-shot camera dock. It literally takes the photos for you. Skeptical? I was too . . . at first. Until I learned how.

I've used a digital camera that incorporates face and smile detection technology, so I can attest to its ability to capture shots when I'm not really paying attention. It's this technology that makes the Party-shot camera dock so effective. Just set up the dock with your SC-WX1 or DSC-TX1 Cyber-shot camera and let the gadget do all the work. Great for candid and natural-looking shots, the Party-shot detects smiles and faces as it swivels and tilts 360 degrees to get the best shot around. The Party-shot hits stores in September for $150, but will you be in line?
