Don’t ask me how I stumbled on this one but this is cool. The old adage about “if you have to ask then you probably can’t afford it” mind… Robotics have always fascinated me. Aibo, Asimo, QRIO etc. What do you think of NAO? I wouldn’t mind being a beta tester for NAO. Looks fun!

    Wow that is some wicked robot!! Looks and articulates so much better than its predecessors. But you are right though…nice to look but hurts the wallet!!! Don’t see much practical use for it yet…unless it translates into making a full scale walking gundam haha!
