Luxpro's new ripoff target: Sony QRIO?

By Barb Dybwad

So maybe Luxpro got to the end of the line knocking off other companies'
digital
audio
players, because they seem to have moved on to the robot market. They're soon to be rolling out (although an official product launch for an imaginary product is sort of moot,
in'it?) the POLUBO, a small personal robot for children (damn, they're even stealing the whole caps thing from the
QRIO). It's gonna do the following things:
interactive language learning for the kiddies, realistic body movements, educational enrichment of some sort, picture cards, voice recording, and a "child-proof" design for unsupervised play. But... don't leave your kids alone with this thing, k? You just never know.
