Title: Contacting Caleb Chung
Post by: Torterenek on December 04, 2012, 10:34:33 PM: I have looked everywhere for the inventor's email or mail address. I wanted to discuss with him about other robots with a similar ai to pleo. Creating new life forms. Advertising on tv.

So Innvo or Jetta (I hope I got the spelling right) - the parent company to Innvo are the people to talk to about pleo and or any other pleo like robots they may be working on for future release.

Post by: kat on December 05, 2012, 11:14:12 PM: You can contact them through pleoworld customer support or just go to the Jetta website or Innvo website and find the contact us icon - it's usually at the very bottom of the site.

Seriously I wonder too what he's up to these days. Being a toy-designer has to be a hard job. Just as much artistry as money I suppose. I'm surprised he doesn't have a wide audience of fans encouraging him to look into continuing his work. He gave us a wonderful companion in pleo and I am very greatful.

I found this one that told Caleb Chung is working here now...as well as John Sosoka.

You could follow with John Sosoka here too

Note: I found Mr.Sosoka's informations a few but for Mr.Chung, really difficult to trace but I think he's love to work and less on the press. This is the only clues for now.

Post by: kat on February 25, 2013, 03:38:27 PM: well it is nice to see that some of the team that bought us pleo have been able to move on to another inventive environment. It may just be lighting but it is lighting with a difference :) It is a shame that Innvo didn't bring them on board to the pleo project to get them to invent new lifeforms for them. But then I guess you never know what the future may bring.
