I promise I will send you the new product. Nabaztag.
Meanwhile you can have a look at it here and when we have the translation done I'll send you the description of the rabbit (yes it moves its ears!). This all stems from an article I wrote here. The new version of Dal moves it's ears and plays tunes...and when I get one - I'll give a full review. I like the idea of receiving my information in a non-invasive way. Rather than the BONG!! of the immediate email, or the harsh ringing of my phone (yes I have one of those phones that plays horrible music when people call it - sorry co-workers) if I could get a subtle light change from the Nabaztag...or maybe the ears droop to indicate a message from a client, or they perk up when the message is from a family member. Just dreaming now...
Less intrusive notification...I'll give a full report when I get one.

Amy, my co-workers WILL LOVE IT OR ELSE!!!
Cancer...great little play...I'm going to publish it as my work and give you no royalties. Also, I think the mood I set for the Nabaztag should determine how the bunny reacts to the message...we'll see how it reacts to yours!!!!

I imagine your co-workers will appreciate a singing bunny as well! =)

Looks like something out of Willy Wonka--and may just be odd enough to work.
Act 1, Scene 1
(Anywhere U.S.A, corporate office)
Worker 1 upon entering coworker's space and seeing the Nabaztag, "Groovy rabbit dude, what's it do?"
Worker 2: "It lets me know when there's a call, and who it's from by changing color and singing."
Worker 1: "That's, like, totally far-out trippy, man."
Worker 2: "Yeah, you oughta get one."
Worker 1: "Well, I'm waiting for the review to come out on brainblenders first..."
Close Curtain, Light up "Applause" sign.
Laugh all the way to the bank.
