iZ, Zizzle's Animatronic DJ

I now know what I want for Christmas.

Zizzle, a toy company founded by Furby creator Roger Shiffman, is launching iZ, an animatronic DJ. Kids poke and prod it to mix 'n' mash beats.

I dunno. My wife's Furby never amounted to much, linguistically...

My furby rocked! Well, okay, no it didn't...besides wanting to sleep and eat, it never did learn to speak English! Anyway, I'm curious how that little robot-dj would entertain at parties, as you can hook up your ipod to it and have the iZ make commentaries (as, of course, DJs always make commentaries while mixing...).

Are you kidding? It made a total of 5 sounds..! Including the oh-so-loved, "whooaaAAAAAaaahhh" exclamation. Maybe iZ will do better. For shizzy.

I'm interested in hearing about the "oh-so-loved, "whooaaAAAAAaaahhh" exclamation"...
