MIOpup is Cheap AIBO-wannabe, Shows 100 Emoticons

mio-1.jpg
MIOpup is Sega/Tiger Electronics' new robotic puppy after the iDog. This Jetsons-looking cheap AIBO-wannabe looks really cute.
Apart from walking, "feeding" and dancing to rave music, the head and back have a touch sensor that reacts to your caressing.
Its ears and tail can wiggle and its eyes can show a hundred emoticons
that will tell your kids how it feels like when they left it in the
closet to play Wii. It looks like Japan is getting it first in October
for $75, so it looks like it will be home for Christmas.
