Akazawa taking orders for “desktop” robot PLEN

070706_plen2.jpg

Japanese company Akazawa is selling an 18-jointed, 23cm robot named PLEN, which can be operated via Bluetooth and several au mobile phones.

Billed as a desktop hobby bot, PLEN can roller skate for about 25 minutes on a single charge of his battery, kick balls by himself and knock your coffee all over your keyboard. All that for ¥262,500. The machine-translated online reservation form is here. Only 50 units are available initially.
