Got this 2 days ago. My last purchase for the year of 2008. A display couldnt resist. So what is all the hype about it in Japan. I am still wondering. Seems like local market is still not that crazy about it…
Got it at S$86.00 from Sunshine Plaza. Is it a rip of? Next door tentant were actually selling at S$99.00 
Some information on Hatsune Miku from Wikipedia:
Hatsune Miku (初音ミク) is the first installment in the Vocaloid Character Vocal Series released on August 31, 2007. The name of the title and the character of the software was chosen by combining Hatsu (初, First?), Ne (音, Sound), and Miku (未来, Future). The data for the voice was created by actually sampling the voice of Saki Fujita, a Japanese voice actress. Unlike general purpose speech synthesizers, the software is tuned to create J-pop songs commonly heard in anime, but it is possible to create songs from other genres... Some photo taken of Vocaloid Hatsune Miku, visit my flickr.
