Meet The Cute iDog
Yet more things jumping on the ever-rolling iPod band wagon, here’s a puppy that loves to listen to its surroundings!
He’s a music-loving robot dog with a difference. In fact I-Dog can’t live without a few decent toe-tappers. That’s because this cute little bow wow ‘feeds’ on the tunes you play him and develops one of three personalities according to the music he hears. He even functions as a portable speaker for your audio player. It’s a kind of woof-woofer [groan].
The idea is to feed I-Dog with music at least once an hour when he is switched on. Simply plug his lead (well, connector cord) into the headphone jack of your audio device (CD player, stereo, MP3, computer, etc.) and let the doggie disco commence. This harmonic hound also comes complete with a dual jack so you can plug your headphones in and dance along to the music too.
I-Dog begins life in Puppy Mode but as you feed him he will begin to react to the tunes he hears. Rock and punk make him rebellious, pop and R&B make him happy and dance music makes him excitable. A series of multicoloured lights on I-Dog’s face also help to show how he is feeling.
I-Dog can also use his built-in microphone to listen and react to music from an outside source. Plonk him next to a radio and watch him wag along.
I-Dog also reacts to movement. Stroking his head or touching his nose will make him happy and you can also discipline him by touching his tail – although this will make him growl.
If you’ve already fallen in love with this little pooch you’ll be even happier when you see the price! Unlike most robots of the past, this little diamond is being sold for just ã29.95 on Firebox.com. It would make a great gift for any music lover this Christmas.
