Did anyone try the Pleo rb Xmas and birthday greeting cards ?
kat:
Well my pleo cards arrived yesterday :) I am saving the birthday one till my birthday :P but I have opened the Christmas one. I thought that the card would have an RFID chip in it and be activated by putting under pleos chin but that is not the case. %) It seems it is a color recognition type thing. The instructions say to place about 10cm in front of pleos nose and move it around with the pleo until he recognizes it. So it is much more like the training leaf idea. Here are some pics of the card and box.
More details...More details...It is a box inside a box. The card itself is a square of plastic. It does not open up and you can't write on it. You write your message on the back of the inside box.
More details...More details...
And here is a video of Norbit checking out the card ;D (you have to excuse the quality of the sound in the video. My camera has decided to make a lot of static noise and really seems to enhance all the robot sounds. He really isn't that noisy in real life :P )

Very cute :) I think a chip may have been somewhat more reliable though :P
kat:
I know you would all be wondering so I tested it with Gumble to see if he would recognize it too. He sniffed it, growled at it and backed away :D Scary Santa :D I wonder a bit about why they chose to use the color recognition function rather than the RFID chip idea. Makes me wonder if they might put out a new update for the older version pleos so that they can use these cards too? %) Just a thought. :)

I swear I heard a Pleo "Bah humbug' ............... but he got into it in the end! :moose: :P
Very cute, though! :D

That was very cute Kat, I wondered if they would improve the shipping cost of those cards. I do think they are cute. It seems as if you test out lots of Pleo items before the rest of us do, so we get to see your feedback on the item first, which is nice! :) You are our official tester of Pleo items! P:D It would be such a nice idea if they could make one for the millions of Ugobe and Older Pleos out there. I am surprsed that Gumble reacted at all.............that is something. I liked the ending of the video where Norbit sang...very cute. I love his colorful outfit too, I didn't know Males liked all that nice green fur like the girls do! P0:) Hope you get some great things for your birthday..... %) :o ;D( may be a surprise comming your way....?) Can't wait to see the Birthday card when it is time.!
