Somewhere in your house lurks a prehistoric relic, a creature which roamed the Earth over 60 million years ago, a creature recently brought back from extinction, Pleo. Remember the soft feel to that rubber skin? The baby blue eyes begging you for attention? That tail wagging excitedly as you pet your Pleo for the first time? The gentle coo's and cry's of your precious newborn baby? Or remember the advancements in technology, the specs behind the worlds most advanced affordable robot? Whatever it was that attracted you to your little friend and made you buy him/her remember it, your little friend needs you.
Go and find them, unpack them from their box again, dust them off, dig them out and switch them on again, Pleo needs you. As you watch your green friend stretch those aching limbs from their cramped and stiff positions, as your Pleo looks inquiringly at the world that has forgotten them come and log on to BobthePleo.com and share your story.
Come and share your hopes and dreams for the little robots that made such a stir when they first made their appearance into the world. Share skits, hacks, stories, pictures and memories, come and laugh with us, find information, swap pictures, learn things and follow Pleo as his evolution halts at a crossroad trying to decide which direction to take. Ugobe is gone, but Pleo lives on, perhaps a new company will buy and make Pleo's again, or perhaps they will just buy the OS and create their own robots, but either way the legacy of Pleo will not be forgotten as long as the community remembers, shares and discusses.
Remember Pleo, remember us...
We hope to meet you and get to know you soon.
(Yeah I know kinda soppy
I'll try and come up with something better at a later date
