UPDATE: Goodness people... quit commenting on this. This video was made over a year ago. Perhaps I should have updated this sooner... Ugobe already explained that the two Pleos shown here were, in fact, scripted. And they reassured everyone that this practice is common at DEMO. So knock it off already! :D

Ugobe don't release two videos of the same fake product! :)

  • hahahahaha I don't think a rebuttal is required.

  • This video is from August 12, 2006.  It's old... quit trying to make me look like an idiot. I was merely making the statement that Ugobe had claimed that it was responding to touch... They then made it clear that it was commonplace to use a scripted machine at tech shows such as DEMO. This is done. It's been discussed. I hope UGOBE the best.

  • Ugobe and the creator have already acknowledged publicly that the two demo's were scripted. When you only have 3 minutes to show off everything that that Pleo can do scripting is the only way to do it. Read some of the other reviews at various news sites and you will find out that it is very interactive.

  • I received my Pleo five days ago. Believe me (and you will), there's no "script". In fact, the most amazing thing about Pleo is its unpredictability. I thought I'd be bored by now, but Pleo keeps surprising me with unexpected reactions.

  • Hi, I liked seeing both videos especially the more technical one on the right. Thanks for posting these.

  • drapelyk, You shold start with a furby cus pleo is too advanced for ur little seed brain,water that little seed and maybe it will groww ,lol...cheers

  • Sondo13, vids or it doesn't happen.

  • It's also a common practice to lie about a product to make it sound or seem better than it really is. I think most of the hostility toward the fact that it's scripted is that Pleo was announced around the same time Aibo was canceled. A lot of people want a decent replacement to the gap on the market Aibo left, but there is nothing suitable yet.
