Want a dog, but not sure if you're ready for the
responsibility? Practice being master on WowWee's Robopet. This
doggie robot's advanced artificial intelligence and
biomechanical action let it sit, walk, jump, play dead, roll over
and beg. It even scratches itself. Sensors enable it to react to
sound, movement and obstacles, and you can train Robopet. It
responds to negative and positive reinforcement, and its sleep,
wake and guard modes are programmable via remote control. Robopet
is incredibly lifelike, but not too lifelike-if you know what I
mean. Take one home for $99.
