Chicago Tribune Article

Mary Ellen Podmolik of the Chicago Tribune has written an interesting article on the Pleo Dinosaur. She sums the situation succinctly:

This dinosaur is Pleo, a $349 robotic baby Camarasaurus that is among the latest high-tech toys headed to the shelves of electronics and toys stores in coming months. Free of external wires or a remote control, Pleo, available in October, can show emotion, interact with its owner and respond with a variety of "dinosaur" sounds. Owners will be able to download new sounds and behaviors from a Web site.

Mary does look at the toy market in depth and is well worth the read!
