January 15, 2008 at 7:54 AMI can feel the excitement.
And you are right – it’s kind of eerie how much we have in common. I don’t have any robots – but I have an E.T. Furby on my bookcase in my dining area (next to the 7 foot stuffed banana, his name is Banana Steve, he is not a sex toy).

January 15, 2008 at 12:56 PMYour Robot is awesome. I have a R.A.D. robot, the original one from when I was a little geek. Now I’m a grown up (haha) geek. Maybe our robots can hang out and plan to take over the world?
Agreed, who needs Macworld? iDunzo? hehe.

January 16, 2008 at 11:23 PM@Matt — hi-5! he’s had a long and fruitful career as my right hand man for many years now. he’s getting a little dim witted though and slurs his one phrase into the siren noise he makes every three or four button pushes.
@Christina — i bet Banana Steve gives a wicked keynote!
@Sean — my robot is game. though as i mentioned above, he’s not all he used to be and his wheels don’t seem to work anymore which maaaay be from the silly putty lodged in the wheel area. i’m not 100% certain how it got there, but it’s a bugger to get out!
@Nate — uhhhhhggggggg. someone I know just bought one. cost over 4 grand! seriously. it better be able to flllllly for that!
@Mel — wiiiiiiiiiiii.

January 18, 2008 at 12:31 AM@Lisa: Yeah, my robot gets into the silly putty too. Stupid robots. Hehe. Leave my silly putty alone I say.

January 18, 2008 at 5:51 AM@Sean — totally! although it might have been me that rolled him into the silly putty in the first place, but he shoulda taken the initiative to get out or get his wheels cleaned. geeeez. r0b0tz r l33t though.
