Sony Rolly SEP-10BT Sound Entertainment Player

Juniper Foo | Sep 12, 2007

Step aside, Nabaztag. The Rolly is an MP3 player with an integrated speaker that can move.

Sony's loving Aibo may have packed it up for the day, but it brings a tear or two to know that some parts of it may still live on in gizmos like the company's upcoming Rolly SEP-10BT Sound Entertainment Player. Innards-wise, this apparently packs the same technology that controls the robots which Sony has been R&Ding on. While this eggshape MP3 player won't wag any tails or flop its ears with adorable cuteness, it sure can roll. Hence, Rolly? According to specs, Rolly can not only dance/roll(?) to music, it will also choreograph its moves, allowing you to share this with pals online. You can catch the video at newlaunches.com. Two onboard wheels and its rotund design let you roll the roll. Too bad it can't roll over and play "dead" to indicate the batteries' dried up.
