Very Cool... fully automated domestic assistant

www.irobotnow.com... Looks like this is a teaser site for a new product. Very cool. Very Mac-like.

Somebody had a lot of time (and talent) on their hands, hehe....very neat.

Nice. I registered. Who will buy one also ?

Erm, we discussed this before. It's not real. I posted it under "known hoaxes" on the Forum guide... although it's not a hoax, people keep thinking it's real.

It's the trailer for the movie of Issac Asimov's story, I ROBOT. Features Will Smith and a bunch of people I never heard of (I don't go to movies much)

D'oh! Yeah... I wanted to see who caught on... you spoiled the fun! (Disclaimer... I posted the knowledge that this was an Asimov adaption in Cosmic this morning). I hope the producer/director do 1/2 as good adapting this to a movie as was done with Lord of the Rings. [Edited on 23-12-2003 by SkepticOverlord]

TEASER - www.irobotnow.com...

I saw this robot during the trailers when I saw LOTR. My first thought was "WTF?".

Agh, I first I thought that this was real, but then i thought it looked too advanced for it to be realistic.

The site is nicely designed though.
