Sony's new QRIO robot.
 

This thing is amazing!
I've never seen such lifelike motion in such a toy/robot/device before.
Very cute.

Dorimu!

I wonder why they had non-Japanese kids speaking Japanese?
That totally threw me off and made me want my kids' first language to be Japanese.

Now if that thing is real, then that's totally unreal. Kinda freaky and cute at the same time.

This thing really is pretty amazing. The way it interacts with those kids is eerie.

The future is NOW!

Sorry, that was lame.

Is that thing for real? If so, I want one!

That's adorable. I like the one where it's talking to the children.

The robots favorite thing is "dreams."

I want one for Christmas.

I haven't read the book, but is that an Asimov "Do robots dream of electric sheep" reference.

A bit close to the Blade Runner bone too.
