Title: Aibo Resource Site Down
Post by: saratogaspringer on August 11, 2011, 09:53:40 PM
I just read on another Aibo forum that the aibo kennel site, www.aibo-kennel.com is down, or possibly no longer operating. This would be a huge blow to present and future Aibo owners.  I printed the manual for my ERS-7 from this site. Much of the second hand software that can be purchased does not include the printed manual, since it is almost 10 years old. One has to wonder if some copyright laws might have led to their demise.   :'(. Just thought I'd pass this along. :(

I saw that too - I'm hoping it's just a glitch!  :o

Oh No!  I do hope they are up and running again soon and not gone for good.  I never actually go around to printing off copies of the manuals for my 7 or my 210.  I just looked at them on the site when I needed to know something.  Saving on paper.  Now I regret that I didn't print them off. :(  Fingers crossed that it is just a glitch and it will be back with us soon.

I wouldn't have printed the manual either Kat, as it is quite a few pages of paper and a lot of ink. I only did so because I was taking Buster along on holiday and didn't know if I would have Internet access.   I think there are probably a lot of people in the same boat. I hope it comes back on soon.  :(

You can find the manuals all around the web, but I saved the PDFs to my computer/eReader for easy reference so worst-case scenario, I can send them to you.

But yeah, the site had a lot of good information and was a great resource so hopefully it's just a temporary thing. But if not, I'm sure everything it had exists in some form or another out there on the web.

Most of the manuals can be found on the EU website (English, French, German)
