5 Navaztag
Meet Navaztag, the world’s first (and likely last) Wi-Fi enabled ‘Smart Rabbit’. Introduced back in 2005, this crazy-looking gadget was something along the lines of an early pre-cursor to the Amazon Echo. For just $199, this Wi-Fi enabled rabbit “harnessed the power of the internet” to deliver web-based information such as weather, stocks, sports reports and more, while allowing users to stream podcasts, listen to MP3s, and even chat with other Navaztag owners.
The device was even programmed with its own “personality,” and reportedly practiced Tai Chi in its spare time while occasionally offering encouragement to its owners. Ultimately, while Navaztag garnered a small ‘cult following’ of dedicated users, as evidenced in this hilarious YouTube video, the Wi-Fi enabled bunny was just a hare too odd for most consumers.
