Nabaztag

I can’t decide whether the Nabaztag is the most innovative device I’ve ever seen or the most annoying or both. The Nabaztag is a computerized rabbit that plays voicemails, speaks emails, announces stock updates, sniffs your keys and does Tai Chi among other things. The concept is to take resources of the internet and make them accessible from a screenless device.

The Rabbit was designed to integrate the online world into our lives in an unobtrusive way. Pass your keys past its nose and it will greet your arrival, reading you your email, playing songs from friends and going crazy. Aside from the voice, which can get a little annoying (at least from what I’ve heard so far on the company’s website), I think theNabaztag could be a great frivolous addition to any home.
