Furby - news 'from the front' This past weekend found me in the 'returns' line at my local Walmart, returning a pair of slippers (very comfortable but they fell apart in less than 2 months). I overheard the lady in front of me ask the assistant if/when they would have some Furbys for sale. The assistant said that they had formed a waiting list of people to be called but this was presently FULL. This reminded me to check the situation at my local Target. Here the story was 'no Furbys, no waiting list and no date for next delivery'. Also, here is a link I found on the Hasbro board at Yahoo. snap.com Hasbro is spending money on future Furby promotions and there are none in the stores to satisfy present demand...Interesting. Very interesting. Frank
