What the technical changes to the 2009 Pleo's are? Is it just the neck change?
From the Pleoworld site: New for 2009! Improved skin, longer lasting paint, improved mechanics and battery charger.

It depends what you mean by technical. As for hardware improvements, due to a change in the hearing system Pleo responds better to your voice when it comes to figuring out where you are (left or right of him) and there is a redesign of the hard plastic in the neck to avoid wires breaking. As far as cosmetic improvements, the problem of the skin separating has been fixed and the premature wearing of the paint from Pleo’s skin and teeth has been fixed. The new paint should last 3 times longer than the old one. That's all.

Thanks Echo :) Since it has better hearing and they helped the skin split problem I will order from Innvo then, if it was just the neck and paint I would have considered just ordering local :P Can't wait til after the holidays :P

HI IMR, everything I have told comes from Derek Dotson, COO of Innvo Labs. I'll be interested in your experience after the holidays when your new one has a chance to settle in with Stitch and Lilo. Keep all your great videos coming and let me know if the 2009 pleo lives up to expectations. Cheers. Echo
