Sometimes you just have to put a bit of imagination into robots yeah pleo isn't the best he could be but at the moment he's the closest to a life emulating commercial robot you can buy for a reasonable price ugobe might not have fulfilled all their pgoals for pleo but at least he doesn't make R2 D2 sounds like some robotic companions on the market. I've been following pleo from the start (or pretty close) and yeah we haven't got everything we might have wanted but the fact that there is this no-offence admittedly small commnity devoted to a pile of servos and sensors should surely show people that there is something unique about pleo and that whether or not ugobe were all about giving us what we wanted we sure got a pretty cute companion and advanced piece of kit out of the deal. Pleo is what you make of him if you want a real friendly cute, hastle free pet, he can be that or if you just want to rip into his programming and see what you can make him do that's there as well. If ugobe do go under it's up to the pleo lovers to make and share applications to further play around with him. I for one am just happy that, that cute little dino i first saw wake up in a conference hall all that time ago actually made it into production and into my life.
