Bless the makers of Japanese technology – from Tamagotchis to robo-dogs – they've taught us how to develop deep emotional attachments to electronic devices that can never truly love us back. And why the heck not?!
Tengu is the latest in long line of asian technology that has us screaming why?!, followed closely by the words I want one!.
In fact, the thing about Tengu – is that when you scream why?! – so will he! That's this little fella's main function. He's a 7 centimetre tall lip-syncing legend.
To get him going, simply plug this little white brick (cable included) into your USB port – then to activate him – just blow. Yes, blow on his little face and see his little LED face light up! (Closely followed by your little face lighting up!) As soon as you start to talk, so does he – mimicking your every word. Just turn on the music and watch him sing along, you'd swear it was him doing the singing.
Why not put him at the top of your cubicle, then when you talk to your mate on the other side, Tengu's tongue will do the talking! Got a boss who's voice would strip varnish – you'll be able to see the brighter side when Tengu mimicks right along.
Can Tengu do your filing? No. Can he take messages? No. Can he take your mind of the realities of life for a second and turn your frown upside down. Yes! But only if you order him!!
