KTF's surveillance canine beams snapshots via HSDPA

It just makes sense that the same Korean provider that offered up a pet translator service would attempt to give back to the owners, as KTF has launched a robotic puppy that just melts the hearts of gizmo-lovin' gals abroad. Specifically, it garners a crowd of individuals wherever it's at, and then pulls double duty as an undercover surveillance agent, snapping mobile images and channeling them straight to your cellphone via HSDPA. For the paranoid 'rents in the crowd, this here ought to be a perfect way to monitor what really goes down in the house while you're away for the weekend, and while it's no guard dog per se, the evidence this bad boy captures could indeed be quite frightening.

Movin to Korea! Anyone wanna come with?

[Andrew H. @ Apr 21st 2007 5:34PM]

Movin the whole country of Korea and connecting it to North America. Anyone got a tug boat or a couple thousand they can lend?

[kaztm @ Apr 21st 2007 6:52PM]

Korea is on a peninsula.
Are you proposing that we move the whole Eurasian continent?

Oh, I see, perhaps Korea can be detached at 38 North...

No! If you connect Korea to America, they'll become American chicks and loose their exotic Asian allure! Save money on tugboats, just start an airline company with constant flights to Seoul!

I'm just gonna go find a wife and a girlfriend in Korea then come back.

Ah yes, Korea- the land of adroit and dexterous cosmetic surgeons who have mastered the art of natural looking procedures.

[kaztm @ Apr 22nd 2007 2:05AM]

That's right -- I hear that plastic surgery is really popular in Korea.

Perhaps that's what Cho should have tried before he decides to kill everybody...get a second life with a new face.

Please don't tie the tragedy at Virginia tech with this just because the word "Korean" is mentioned.
This is the same kind of witch hunt mentality that has led to anti-American sentiments worldwide. Just because one Korean does something horrible, it doesn't mean that Koreans have anything to do with it. Would it be any different if someone white or black did it? If you're thinking that it would be different, then you have some issues to deal with. This kind of tragedy should be beyond the level of trivial politics or petty patriotism; everyone, no matter what race or political affiliation should weep for the victims.
