Sony’s newest digital music player called simply Rolly was released in America not so long ago, and in a competitive environment, a little extra gimmicks can go a long way. Which is why Rolly dances and put on light shows.

This dancing player doesn’t come cheap, so for $400 a pop, lets see Rolly can do features-wise:

Turn the music player on and it’ll spin and roll to the beat of music playing through built-in speakers. While it dances, it’ll put on a colorful light show and move its tiny arms and shoulders. Shaped like an egg ready to roll off a kitchen counter, the player comes preloaded with music and choreography for “Girlfriend” “Boogie Wonderland” and the theme from “2001 - A Space Odyssey.” It also can play music stored in its 2 gigabytes of internal memory and dance to moves created with the included choreographer software. Plus, music can be streamed from a PC or mobile phone via a wireless Bluetooth connection.


Or you can buy Rolly for your cat to play with
