we have been selling these here in the UK, i must say the feed back from customers has been very positive and the word has certainly spread about this little pleo as regards to the numbers we have on pre order. its certainly going to be one of the top gifts this year for 2008. Everyone in my family now seems to want one…

if anyone would like any further info on the pleo dinosaur then please visit our uk website:

Very neat and a step in the right direction.

Regarding taking on WowWee, the estimated 3-to-4 hours of battery life suggests that Ugobe will be hard pressed to compete with the WowWee Robonetics family on power management. I hope that improves as the Pleo design progresses.

oh.. why is it so difficult for anyone from ugobe.com to show this “hot” product a video to the consumer like me.. I think it is just hype and completely waste of money like iCybie and Robosapien…

Good point Ray. My guess is that there aren’t any videos. The Fall release time is still many months away, and it’s probably all prototypes at this point. :roll

I suggest you monitor the DEMO site. Video could possibly be posted here: http://www.demo.com/demonstrators/demo2006/63039.html later in the week.
