I am in love (click).
The little critter seems to double as an internet radio??

At last a pointless consumer products that fits my lifestyle.
No iPod for me, just look at the specs on this baby.
As soon as I install a router in my new apartment, this rabbit is mine!

“Acclaimed worldwide, Nabaztag has revolutionized the world of objects by opening the door for calm and gentle technologies and to the Post PC generation.”

Unfortunately the Java API documentation is not in English yet, as I’m sure I could do something interesting with those robotic ears.

Just to clarify: “Cute and potentially useful” easily wins against “pretend sexy” (click).

Yet another LBS demo based on canned data (click).

At least when the new iPhone comes out (around July) we will get to see multi-user GPS tracking in action, and I will be getting ready to eat my words (click) if Apple can produce a GPS device significantly better than the one currently included in the Nokia N95.

Otherwise those pins on the map might turn out to be inaccurate or hopelessly out of date.

I wonder if they will include the option to track users via Cell ID instead of GPS?
