A Haunt for the Muses

Before I go into too much detail, there is one thing you must know: This music player is one of the cutest I have ever seen. The Japanese really know what they are doing when it comes to devices such as this. Miuro is a one of a kind digital music Player.

Technically, the correct term for this gadget is a Robot. Not only does it play your digital music, but it follows you around or dances as it plays. It is like a robotic dog - that doesn’t look like a dog and doesn’t display many dog like behaviors.

You can get Miuro in white, black, yellow or red. Of course, you can clip your ipod on top or stream your music wirelessly from your computer. All controls are by simple touches or manipulation of the robot. The only down fall: The price is not for the weak of heart. You always know that if you have to ask about the price, it is too much for you.

I can still imagine it now, doing house work with a little robot dancing and following in my footsteps while playing music. Who really dreams of a white picket fence instead of this little guy. How can you say no to that face.
