"To run Robodance in conjunction with the WowWee Rovio spy robot you will need A personal computer running Windows 2000 or better. If you want to control your Rovio over the Web with a Nintendo Wii Remote you will also need Bluetooth capability. If your desktop computer or laptop is not already Bluetooth capable, you will need to get an inexpensive Bluetooth dongle.
