Anatomy of a Pleo
Oooh, pictures and schematics and facts, oh my!From the PC Mag Article (which confirms a "sub-$200 price): When Pleo ships later this year, Ugobe plans on selling personality modules that end users will be able to install either via SD cards or a USB port. Owners may even be encouraged to have little Pleo play dates as the robots are expected to interact with each other.
Pleo -- Caught on Film! (Well, Video...)
It lives! See Pleo chomp fingers and generally just look cute as the dickens, thanks to this rare footage of the little dinosaur in the wild. Thank C/Net for the video, and BoingBoing (or MAKE:blog -- I can't remember which I came across first) for tipping me off to it.Oh, and at the end of the interview you can hear him say that Pleo should only cost around $200. Yay!
