This may be the cutest robot I've seen -- It reminds me a lot of Furbies. Named "Penbo", this little pink penguin-bot is the girly answer to the Prime-8 robot created by Bossa Nova.
Penbo can respond to touch and voices and carries around a litle baby known as "Bebe". The offspring can be used to attract Penbo to your current location in a room, as it begins to 'look' for its child. Penbo also plays games with Bebe. There are up to four different colour Bebes,and Penbo reacts diffrently to each one. They also have up to 21 different features.
Check out the video to witness the Penbo dance between two of these mechanical birds.
Expect Penbo (and Prime-8) to be available at QVC for a price of $80 (£50).
