Part of my junket to Disneyland included a demonstration of Honda's Asimo robot.

I was enthralled. Expensive, still primitive by Science Fiction standards, yet absolutely captivating in its abilities and movements. Seeing it in person, I was thunderstruck. Had they given it a digital face like "Eve" in Wall-E, I think I would have fallen head over heels in love...
I don't have a spare million to buy one of the 46 units in existence, but my guess is that my grandchildren will probably be able to afford one, and by that time it will be a whole lot more useful.
Not much more to say than
