My little boy forgot about the robot pup. It just sits in his room. I conviced myself to be a techno geek after hearing it from my friends and relatives but what I will never do is to have a robopuppy. Never, in my opinion. No robo dog will ever be cuter than a real dog.
Real dogs are much more fun and have fellings.
They also don't run on batteries. Besides, this dog is adorable. While the Digital dog is very cool, and I would love to have one, I stilll do not think it would ever replace the warmth and affection of a real hound. Comet is a biological being paralleling ourselves as a biological being, therefore more relatable to us as humans. No matter how much fun you can have with Aibo, he still can't cuddle up with you or give those cute faces and kisses only a warm blooded dog can do like Comet.
