The end is nigh!

pleo is cool and all but he only lasts for like 4 hours befor it need to be charged again and that takes like 6 hours but still i have a feeling that soon things like teddy from A.I. are closer then you think

[JackDurban]

That was in the original design plans but it was axed in the interest of time.

[precogpunk]

considering it takes so long to charge pleo should have a station that it will return to when it needs a nap. like the aibo. but the aibo costs x10 more. then again, the roomba can do this!

Pleo's kinda good at the start but then you get so bored of it coz all it does is know whats in front of it and moves wen you poke it big woop. Hello! you're payin $350 for this peice of rubbish!

[severmine]

dude, this dude can do so much more. go here (he gets scared by a ledge, reacts to people tickling his toes, etc)

i was pretty impressed. too bad we didnt get to hear more about how he works

[Nebzz]

Wow, it has thousands of movemnts but only seems to hobble from side to side in every video i've seen. I think this is a bigger hoax than the phantom game system.
