Updated 17/08/2004  There has been so much interest in the ROBO-ONE contest that was mentioned here a week ago, that I decided to post this, courtesy of Gizmodo.  It turns out that the popular site had a couple of entries dedicated to the big Macy's Robosapien exhibit in front of its New York City store.  This is part of the campaign for the much anticipated arrival of WowWee's Robosapien, "the hottest programmable, entertainment robot on the planet".  The robot is expected to be available at Macy's stores across the United States in the "Home Store" section. 

Here is another link to the story, along with a full description of Robosapien:

Designed by WowWee and robotics physicist Mark Tilden, Robosapien is the most advanced and humanlike robot available. At 14 inches high, Robosapien has excellent articulation and has 67 pre-programmed functions, including picking up, throwing, giving a high-five, whistling and dancing - all of which you program with an easy-to-use remote. Robosapien has four advanced programming modes to program a sequence of actions and three pre-programmed demo modes. And, in addition to being highly intelligent and programmable Robosapien is also totally affordable at an approximate retail price of $99.

So to all the robot enthusiasts out there... enjoy!
