i bought one today, i will write my thoughts, soon... i'm agree about the graphic... it's cool!
In Italy toy stores sold vmigo with the tv console, not sold separately

I saw VMigos in TRU with price 29€ and the TV station thingie with 79€.

Not all the stores are selling them with -75% price

put the handheld in the dock station, but what a disappointment! The graphic is much better in the Handheld! And the game too! You could dress the dog only in the Shop I like my pod more than the dock station thing... and the dog is more natural in the small screen than on your tv...

I received the Vmigo! it was super cute!!!
Im raising a Golden Retriever and Im putting the backlights off
I named the lil doggy "Koganetchi"
Im raising money so that I can afford to buy FOOD!! lol!

I cant wait to see Koganetchi being an adult, and he can play new games and stuff~

Could someone be so kind as to tell me how to pause/turn off the Vmigo? How do you turn off the sound? Thank you!

[Jiro]

to turn the sound off, simply push the ? button on the side of your Vmigo
Im still figuring on how to pause it

Thanks Jiro! On 'turned off' mode (where the screen is blank) stats appear unchanged (other than age, which goes by the clock), for better or for worse. This is, I'd imagine, in the case that somebody were to forget their puppy on a trip or while they were at school or work, etc.

My one concern with this virtual puppy is batteries. I had a set of three brand new ones in and they lasted for about two or three days (this IS with the back light off). I don't necessarily want to spend that much money on batteries (I wish they only took one or two batteries). The instructions clearly state NOT to put in rechargable batteries, but I'm curious. Has anyone tried these? Does anyone know why they might not work in the vMigo console? If you did and they didn't hurt the console or your puppy in any way, shape or form, how long did they last with the backlights off, fully charged? Also, if you have one and you have tried at least two different brands with the back light off, can someone please tell me the brand and approximate run time in days that they lasted (unless you just leave yours on turned off mode all day). Also, other than the back light, what can I do to conserve battery power so that they last more than a couple days? Any info along these lines is appreciated!

well... you can use NICD (rechargeable batteries)
it lasts longer...
