Here COMS, here COMS: Sony robot dog sells out on Internet in 20 minutes
Reuters - 05:04 a.m. Jun 01, 1999 Eastern

TOKYO, June 1 (Reuters) - Sony Corp said its robotic dog sold out in Japan
20 minutes after going on sale exclusively over the Internet on Tuesday morning.

Three thousand ''Aibo'' robotic dogs were sold at 250,000 yen ($2,066)
each, it said.

Another 2,000 Aibos will go on sale also exclusively over the Internet in the
United States on Tuesday for $2,500 each.

Sony has no plans to make additional sales, a company spokesman said.

The 27 cm (11 inches) tall Aibo can go for walks, wag its tail and be
programmed to do tricks, although it cannot answer to its name.
