Tonight I was having dinner with some "otaku"/geek friends and after the foie gras, champagne, etc... the dining experience could not have been complete without showing some of the latest gadgets. Among them, I was really impressed by the Sony Rolly, an MP3 player with speakers that can move and “dance” synchronously with the tune’s beat.

Our friends at Ubergizmo wrote about it a while ago but this is the first time I actually get to play with it. It's very similar to the Miuro, but without the moving ears and much much smaller. My Japanese friends told me that the team who designed the Rolly came from the now defunct Sony Aibo's project to create an MP3 player!
