Honda's upgraded version of Asimo can jog at nearly 6 miles per hour; open a thermos and pour juice into a cup

Nice!  I saw a demo of Asimo on TV a little while back.  He was impressive then, I'm glad to see the leaps and bounds they've made since!

Domo arigato, dudely roboto! Another caucasian Gary-Bot?

"Gary-bot" brings up a cool thought, Rev; a robot bartender giving out advice; now I wonder how long before we see one?

"So, man, how a-bout those Wash-ing-ton Red-skins?"

Hmm, I think I might require my banter a little more organic ;)

Do notice that the most advance robot to date is only able to jog and open a drink.

Hardly the implementation of SKYNET that we were lead to expect.

Didn't they disguise themselves as humans to infiltrate the human camps then destroy them from within.

i dabbled in a bit of robotics in the 90's. the biggest problem for huminoid robotics is creating mechanical servos and drives that are powerfull enough to operate limbs and yet have little weight or power consumption. electroactive polymers look like a solution but its still the power. unfortunately we are not allowed to have uranium power cells walking around in public ;)
