This is great. Thanks for bringing it as I never saw it. It gives me newfound respect for the entire project.

I don't have time to watch this whole video at the moment but the link works for me and it looks interesting, I'll definitely get to watching the whole thing soon.
fimoman:
Looking through it right now, I must say, it is interestinto see people from UGOBE talking about it from a non-technical point of view.
I do like that little anecdote about the psychologist who sat in on an interview, and while she was initially skeptical about Pleo, as soon as she heard him pining for attenion, she was shocked to find herself petting him. Very sweet.
latrine:
I thought that story was neat too.. and the fact that she stopped herself from petting him.. aren't we humans something? I wish I was a chicken :P

My mom had the same thoughts about it but she liked Elliott (my 2009 Innvo Pleo) after he was turned on and running. Most people I've met that seem skeptical about any robotic "pet" sure seem to have a different tune once they experience one.
