Sony's Rolly Finally Rolled Out
By: Shayne Rana   |   Sep 11, 2007
Rumors of Sony’s rolling speaker system (called the Rolly, what else?) had been floating around on the Internet for a long time but finally all is revealed. The Rolly is a portable wireless speaker system with audio capabilities as well. It uses Bluetooth technology to connect to your player or PC. The best part is that the device is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and weighs just 300 grams.


Activate the egg-shaped device, and the ends (flaps) open up to reveal lights that actually work in sync with the music playing. It has two stereo speakers and 1GB of inbuilt flash memory for storing music. According to the Sony, the Rolly has a battery life of around five hours. It’s equipped with sensors to interpret directions, and volume can be controlled by turning the player clockwise or counterclockwise.

Specific motion programs designed for the Rolly can be sent to the device via Bluetooth from the PC. Various other programs for movement and choreography can also be downloaded. The device can also be used as an alarm clock. What's more, it's compatible with Sony’s ATRAC format and MP3s as well.


As of now the Rolly is available for purchase in Japan for approximately Rs 14,160 (40,000 Yen, or US$354). With any luck, since it’s already out in Asia, we can expect to see it in our stores soon.
