Wow that is such an advancement in robotics. About a year ago they had problems with humanoid robots trying to pick up a ball, now they got one that does so much more.
To program such a robot is so unbelievably difficult. QRIO is so cute !

The wireless technology built into it is probably so it can interface with Skynet
I wonder if they programmed in the 3 Laws of Robotics?
Or maybe they're saving that for future revisions, after several people are murdered by their toy robots! :p

Hmmm
it's incredible + very cool.. but at the same time, one part of me just wants to smash it
a robot to live and play with me? Why? All this research for what -- a pal? Is its purpose really just for my amusement - an inorganic pet whose purpose is my satisfaction? Iuno bout you guys, but I'd say No Thanks

I was reading around and the speculations are it will cost 10,000-50,000$ (oooookay) until about 2006.

What the fuck, it missed? If I buy a golfing robot, it had damn well better sink every put.
