OK, I've been lovesick too, never getting enough of the one who's captured your heart, the one that makes you realize all those love songs were written just for the two of you.

Have I got a product for your Valentine's Day!

The i-Buddy is an MSN Messenger angel. Your lover's angel.

When your lover sends you an instant message with an emoticon, the angel on your desk acts it out. Happy face? Your robot angel acts happy. Angry? It gets apoplectic. 

Now available in Thailand, UK and Switzerland. Soon to come Skype-flavored. 

So even when you're not staring at your computer's monitor (watching Four Weddings and a Funeral, perhaps) you can still see how your true love is feeling. Right now.
