$444 to feed your pet remotely by PC or cell phone |
Keep looking at the following pictures of the iSeePet360 product (Japanese) and thinking: wouldn’t your dog just tear this thing up?

I’ve seen and had dogs tear through things like strong cables with their teeth that would make the iSeePet360 look like a candy cane. Once your pet realizes this thing is its next meal, how long is it going to take for it to go all Cujo on it?

The ISeePet360 grants you the remote ability to take care of your pet’s feeding habits while away from it! Having another option that would grant us more flexibility and freedom would be great. The ISeePet360 is an advanced dry food feeding bowl that let’s you control the feeding time using your cell phone or PC.
Also comes with a webcam so you can “watch your animal while s/he eats” — really? I understand loving your pets, but do pet owners really want to use a webcam to watch them eat? I understand some legitimate health uses, like if your dog hasn’t been eating, but wouldn’t an empty bowl or plate give you this important information? Do one really need the equivalent of a Slingbox for pets? Maybe they offer a version sans webcam?
I imagine when IPv6 fully arrives and everything has an IP address, we’ll see many more of these type products.
If you’re interested in this product, it will only set you back 50,000 Yen, or about $444 USD at conversion rates as of this writing. We don’t have any pets currently, so not applicable for our home. For pet owner readers, would you consider buying one of these? Seriously?

I love my dog. This idea is cute, but NO! $444… that’s crazy talk. Perhaps, for ONLY the novelty of having a dog-cam on my website, I might drop $20-$40 on this. And I think the novelty will not last too long.

Yeah, wayyyyyyy too spendy. They should have made those features add-on say through a USB port option like the Chumby. For that matter, a Chumby could be modded to provide the “brain” behind a remote feeding device.
I got your email, BTW, working on a reply

Wow, this seems like a good idea, but way overpriced. I love my pets and if I had a pet sitter round then I would be interested in seeing how they were being looked after (yes I am nosy).I would also like to check they are ok from time to time, but it seems a strange thing to watch them eat.
