230400425 Teksta V2 Robotic Puppy Makes a Great Cheap Aibo Alternative
We get it - you were crushed when they discontinued the Aibo, especially since you never got the chance to scrounge up enough moola to splurge on one. For £36.75 ($69 USD) you can soothe your pain with the Teksta V2 Robotic Puppy which does look strikingly similar to the AIBO. Sure, the Teksta V2 Robotic Puppy may not be as advanced as the Aibo was, but he is sophisticated enough to be activated by voice, touch and light. His eyes also light up and his tail will wag to show you how he is feeling, just like a real AIBO, errr, or should we say just like a real dog? He also barks, whines and whimpers. And an included handheld translator will help you understand what exactly he is trying to convey when he barks, whines and whimpers.

    Teksta, la alternativa al Aibo

    El Aibo de Sony fue descatalogado hace bastante tiempo, pero por suerte ya tenemos sustituto para él. Bueno, sustituto no, porque probablemente el Teksta V2 Robotic Puppy no disponga de tantas funcionalidades como el Aibo y no sabemos si será tan hack…

    Hi, it’s saying ‘Sorry, I have fleas’ and you have to bath it until it stops saying it. Hope this helps.

    Actually, we heard one which we think is ‘I am tired’. It sounds a lot like ‘I am dying’ though. I hope it’s not!

    We also thought ‘I am grateful’ sounds like ‘I am playful’. It’s really annoying isn’t it?
