The ERS-110 was the first AIBO Sony made available to the public. On May 31st. 1999, 3000 were sold in twenty minutes on the internet in Japan setting a world record. On June 1st. 1999, 2000 more were made available in the United States. They sold in less than a week and the servers crashed because of all the traffic to the web site. The 110 is Champagne Gold in color with all of the joints and toes in gray. The ears are round at the bottom and the tail has four sections. The longest and I would say most active tail of any AIBO to date. The 110 uses a sound controller because it does not respond to voice commands. It came with everything necessary to fully utilize the robot and had to be raised from a puppy to an adult by interacting with him/her for many months if not longer depending on how long you played with AIBO. The 110 has a head sensor that can be used to praise or punish the dog. The 110 and 111 are the only AIBO's that can have a gender assigned to them on their memory sticks The 110 uses an 8 MB or 16 MB purple memory stick. For custom programming no larger than a 16 MB memory stick may be used, AIBO will not boot up.
