		The eagle-eyed Cindy follows in the path of other breakthrough toys like Chatty Cathy, whose pull-string statements shook up the doll market 40 years ago, or Sony's barking Aibo robot, which was the first to popularize voice command in the late '90s.
		Cindy takes Aibo's innovations one step beyond: She not only follows instructions but intuits shapes, colors, and words — and remembers.
		Buried in her belly, Cindy's 16-bit microprocessor — an upgrade from the toy industry standard 4-bit — compares the text with her database of 700 words.

	Move over Barbie, Cindy's way too smart - National - theage.com.au
		Cindy was launched at Myer in Bourke Street yesterday, and eight-year-old Jessica, a student at Bialik College in Hawthorn, thought the world's first seeing doll was "really cool".
		"Cindy Smart is the first toy ever to have the sense of sight and this new technology has a chance to create a revolution in our industry," said Mr Del Principe.
		Cindy Smart looks like a typical, prerevolutionary doll - long blonde hair, blue eyes and a button nose - but her insides are stuffed not with passe batteries and plastic hip joints, but a digital camera, microprocessor, and voice-recognition software.

	The Blog \| Cindy Sheehan: OutFOXed? \| The Huffington Post (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Cindy Sheehan is showing courage and American ideals by standing up for what she believes and is not afraid of bullies like you.
		A parrallel that I remember is the, on one hand, mountains of protestation about the "rude and repressive" heckling incident of Jeanne Kirkpatrick where students were reportedly squeaking balloons while she wanted to speak in Berkeley CA.
		Cindy Sheehan has lied (in not having the courage to stand by what she had so accurately written in the 'Nightline' email about Kristol's PNAC Neocon cabal) and comes across as a hypocrite as a result:

		The doll can do simple math, recognize basic shapes and colors, respond to 70 preprogrammed questions and read flash cards (as long as they're within her vocabulary of 650 English words and a smattering of German, Spanish, Italian and French ones).
		If all this gets to be too much, you can always switch Cindy off and braid her white-blond hair.

		Because Cindy Smart is interactive, she can be taught to speak new words and recognize new objects, so it’s only a matter of time before criminals recruit her.
		For example, if Cindy were trained to spot police cars and say ‘‘Here come da cops,’’ she could serve as a lookout doll for bank robbers.
