About a couple of months ago, I started getting ready for the weening-off-the-bottle-to-sippy-cup phase. I bought some transitional sippy cups from Munchkin (which have a soft spout made of a silicon material similar to Emmett's bottle's nipples) and even the real things, planning to be fully prepared. When I first gave Emmett the transitional sippy, his reaction was basically, "What the heck is this thing?" which then of course resulted in frustration and the cup bouncing off the floor. I decided to put it away and try it again another day.
Well, "another day" turned out to be today, and I'm happy to report some mild success! Watch as Emmett investigates and tests his sippy.

So far, they seem to be working out great! No leaking, easy-to-grip. I definitely recommend them if you're looking for a training cup. Check 'em out here.
