Pros: Excellent video quality and reception. Attractive design and easy to use and setup.
Cons: Program guide only tells you what show is on next. Audio quality is not the best but has improved over the Zenith DTT900 model.
Conclusion: Out of all the cheap digital converter boxes you can buy this is the best because it delivers where it matters most, video quality and reception.

Review
Pros: Version 2 speaks in English unlike its prior generation. Robosapien can now interact with other “Signature Series” robots, like the Robopet and Roboraptor. Wireless controller included for a score of advanced commands. Able to remember the programing you gave it even after it is turned off.
Cons: Needs good room lighting for the sensors register, Robosapien will say “Lighting too low” if room light is not sufficient. Only walks properly on special kind of floors, like title. Battery life is longer than I expected, but could be longer.
Conclusion: Robosapien V2 is much improved, with tons of features and at a new low price. Batteries can get expensive, but all in all this is the best full function Humanoid Robot on the market.
