Sony Introduces $400 Cat Toy

posted by on May 30 at 14:35 PM

The dancing 2GB portable music device Rolly is now available in the US:

Turn the music player on and it’ll spin and roll to the beat of music playing through built-in speakers. While it dances, it’ll put on a colorful light show and move its tiny arms and shoulders. Shaped like an egg ready to roll off a kitchen counter, the player comes preloaded with music and choreography for “Girlfriend” “Boogie Wonderland” and the theme from “2001 - A Space Odyssey.” It also can play music stored in its 2 gigabytes of internal memory and dance to moves created with the included choreographer software. Plus, music can be streamed from a PC or mobile phone via a wireless Bluetooth connection.

what a pointless piece of shit. Even the cat got bored with it after two minutes.

Is this the 21st-century cousin of those dancing Coke cans that were all over the place in the late 80s/early 90s? C'mon, admit it, you had one.

Will it stream music from my Zune?

It's not as cool as those dancing flowers in the pots you always see at the mall. I have a lot of other things to spend 400 bucks on, namely my new iphone, I'm sure there will be a dancing application.
