Oh my word, that was very funny and amazing! I had a toy robot a few years back (might have been called Femibot, but I can't recall) that also danced, but it was not as advanced (or expensive) as this one. What a hoot.

Very cute! I like the way it looked up at the guy when he spoke.
I love robots, at least the consumer type. I like that they can be personal assistants. Alexa, the Amazon Echo, isn't really a robot in that it's just a black speaker/cylinder, still reminds me of one in that she can do a lot of things. When I woke up this morning I asked her what time it was. (She hadn't turned on the alarm yet.) Then I asked her what the weather was for today and she read back a full weather report for my town. Then I asked her to read my news for today. She read brief news stories from my pre-selected news sources. Then I asked her to play the song, Hallelujah that had been sticking in my head since Saturday night. She started playing a version I hadn't heard before. I asked her, "Alexa, who's singing this?" She replied that it was Straight No Chaser and told me the name of the album. I told her to turn the volume up. When it finished I asked her to play the same song by K D Lang. (Love that version!) She played it and then repeated when I asked her to. Then I asked her to turn on the bedroom lights and got up. Love the technology!
