“Sony’s robotic Aibo pup continues to learn new tricks. Thanks to a new software update, the android companion will now predict when you come home and sit patiently at the front door. Or that’s the idea, anyway. According to Sony’s website, you’ll first need to assign a meeting place — the entrance to your front home — by saying a phrase like “this is where you should go.” Aibo should then lower its head and ‘sniff’ the ground to indicate that it’s storing the location. If the process is successful, a door icon should appear on the map located inside the companion app.

From that point onwards, Aibo will theoretically walk up and say hello every time you open the front door and say “I’m home.” With time, the adorable robot should learn when you tend to come home and start waiting at the door in preparation, just like a flesh-and-bone canine would.

-they cannot function without batteries

-the only way they can hurt you is if you like have one on the floor and you trip over it or something

-they dont swear or talk about murder. they speak a launguage called furbish and if you cant understand it then you will most likely mishear things.

-they! are! not! evil! demons! from! hell!

-they dont have any function whatsoever that allows them to walk. the closest thing is if a 2012+ is dancing on a smooth surface they might scoot forward a little

-they arent possessed. if a furby is acting weird, try changing the batteties.

-keep in mind that the ones from ‘98-'01 are almost 20+ years old. they will have defects! that may be another reason why a furby is acting strange

-destroying them is a terrible waste!

-some people need furbies to comfort them if the have disorders such as autism, AD(H)D, anxiety, depression, etc. If you see someone out with a furby, please dont make fun of them!

-if you find them creepy, perhaps try to spend more time around them! i noticed that once i saw the insides of one and saw how it worked, i was a lot less freaked out by them.
