Dining with PR2? Just don't let it cook.

I like that the dog didn't like being walked by a robot.

Also they're going to have to drop the price below $400k before I can get excited: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/09/08/your-very-own-400000-robot/

It is hard to know how many robots are in use today because roboticists disagree on what a robot is. Must it have arms, or artificial intelligence, or facial recognition? The earliest definition of the word, which comes from the Czech word robota, means “forced labor,” or “slave.”

I had no idea!
