WowWee Rovio, Everything the Aibo Should Be


WowWee, makers of such fine products as cat-hunting dragonflies, have unveiled a new, fairly badass three-wheeling robot for home use that's not all the different from the specs we've seen in Sony's new rumored AIBO.

Wow Wee: Dragonfly Video

We've been pretty excited about the R/C Dragonfly from Wow Wee, makers of the Robosapien. Then T3 got their hands on one and posted this video. Verdict was as expected: fun, potentially dangerous (translation: even more fun). They say the steering is "dead easy", but the clips don't tell the same tale. Maybe the left and right steering is tight, but the altitude is tough to control? More »
