Yes I got the newest model and I must say, I am VERY impressed. This thing is WAY more life like than I thought it would be. I programmed it to recognize my voice and face as its owner. When I tell it to "go find its station" it looks around, finds the station and backs itself onto it to recharge! When I told it to find its bone, it located it, picked it up and brought it to me. It also has a pink ball it plays with, when it found it it pushed it with its nose, then lined itself up...turned around and kicked it backwards! I am having so much fun with this thing. I was just lying down, all fours spread out before... Then decided to get up and I said "come here" and it did. Here are some shots of it fetching its bone...

Bending down to get it...

He's really cool. Glad you like him.

Is it just me, or are there many people on this forum that are getting expensive items?
I got a laptop, Sponge got a laptop, NY got an Aibo, Matt got a laptop, someone just ordered a new guitar, and RICoder just got his uber camera.

Two cupcakes were in an oven. One turned to the other and said "Damn, it sure is hot in here" and the other one said "HOLY SHIT! A TALKING CUPCAKE!"

Pixel is geeky but I don't think any of the others would be good either. You don't want your dog to be named after things in your life besides it.
