I know this isnt related to ball pythons but I ran across this site and thought it was fasinating!

Darn... I was hoping he was selling them and I could have my own snake-AIBO.

I've never even heard of such a thing. If you have a fast connection, I'd suggest checking out the videos of these robots in action. They actually look like a real snake moving. I don't know if they have wheels on the bottom of them to make them move like that but they have very realistic movement none the less. Thanks for the link, Scott.

Those are very cool and it seems he is getting better as time goes on as far as movement and how the snake itself looks. The sidewinding was especially impressive.
