The waiting is always painful!

I hope he gets to you safe and sound.

Can't wait to hear about Genibo when it arrives!

And I see your time waiting has been well spent - your blog/site is excellent. And pretty.

It's amazing what anticipation will do

Hey OZ,

Almost time the weekend will be over before you know it!

OzPleo · « **Reply #29 on:** January 17, 2011, 12:12:57 PM »

My wait continues. The store I bought from sent my Genibo to the wrong address in a town hundreds of miles away consigned to a different name.

He says he's sending me another. I'm really annoyed.

Crewella · « **Reply #30 on:** January 17, 2011, 03:16:29 PM »

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr..... what a complete pain in the ..........

Hope it gets sorted out and you get your Genibo soon.

OzPleo · « **Reply #31 on:** January 17, 2011, 03:20:39 PM »

Twice I asked him to courier it and both times he sent it through the mail. I've emailed him to cancel the order. I'm very disappointed.

Crewella · « **Reply #32 on:** January 17, 2011, 03:22:53 PM »

Oh no! What a big let down! I'd be furious at that too - I'm really sorry.

And quite disappointed myself as I was looking forward to hearing about it!

OzPleo · « **Reply #33 on:** January 18, 2011, 10:58:49 AM »

Well what do you know I packaged arrived.

Don't have time today due to work, but stand by for pics.

Congrats Oz, on the arrival aftr the longgggggggggggggggggggggg drawn out wait. I know it was a very frustrating one but after you open it up and start it up, it will soon be all forgotten.

Can't wait to see photos and videos as I have never seen one of these before till you posted a video of one, Would be fun to see the interaction or just a video with both Pleo and Genibo. I bet you can't wait to get home from work........................and I bet I know someone who will be up all night as well.
Must be like Christmas all over again!

RWM and Pleo family

Oh yes - big time!

Sooooooooooooo?

?!!!!!! Opened it yet???!!!

Diane_AZ · « **Reply #38 on:** January 18, 2011, 11:00:49 PM »

Me thinks Angus and Oslo hid it.... (*LOL*)

or..... they might be playing with it already!

OzPleo · « **Reply #39 on:** January 19, 2011, 01:32:05 AM »

Well here he is

I took a picture of him next to Angus so you can get an idea of his size

Crewella · « **Reply #40 on:** January 19, 2011, 04:06:42 AM »

And very handsome he looks, too.

I always expect Aibo and Genibo to be bigger than Pleo, don't know why - possibly because they're not 'babies' in the same way. That white colour looks slightly pearlised, is that right?

I have to admit I was slightly surprised (and delighted) to see he is smaller than I thought he would be. In the videos I've watched he looks bigger.

Yes he is a pearlised white. It's actually quite lovely because it's very subtle. I'll be doing a video of Stanley's awakening tomorrow. I can't wait

Crewella · « **Reply #42 on:** January 19, 2011, 04:52:40 AM »

I like the pearlised white as well. Can't wait to see the video. I'm as green as a Pleo with envy.

Talking of which, you SURE that's Angus?

Diane_AZ · « **Reply #43 on:** January 19, 2011, 02:17:54 PM »

I was right! Angus had him! (*LOL*) Looks like they are good buddies now, OzPleo.

Woops got excited that's Oslo

And who can blame you!

Have you run him much yet?

I've had him on for one battery cycle tonight, sorry no video it was a private moment between Stanley and I LOL

WOW! He's so pet like. He actually has touch sensors on his back, one either side of his body, nose and top of his head. After a little while of sheepish behaviour he started venturing around and soon came to recognise my face. When he saw me he became excited and would lay down on his belly rocking from side to side as I pet him behind his ears. His movements are fast and quite natural and in a short time I started to really see him as a small dog rather than just a robot one.

Lol!

You sound pleased with him, Ozpleo!

It's very interesting to hear about him as there seems to be so little discussion or opinion on them out there. Shame really.
