We all know that Japanese toy and tech manufacturers are making great progess in the area of artificial intelligence, robotics, etc. But this odd little gadget is puzzling. It is a toy/whatsit that's TOO SHY to come out of its box. No, really. Check it out and read the description. What if you were in a hurry and needed your damn keychain already, but you can't have it because you have to sweet- talk it out of its packaging?! Whatevs! The best part? The instructions are only in Japanese.
I found it at Shiny Shiny, the best source of gadget weirdness EVAH!
I give up - WHY is it a French-speaking dog? That makes NO sense. It's a Japanese product. Make it speak either 1) "dog" or 2) effing JAPANESE.
