A very cuddly robot on PBS & a question...

The latest episode of Scientific American Frontiers had a fascinating segment about the blending of MIT labs technical know-how with Hollywood special effects wizardry(Stan Winston) to create a highly interactive robot any young child would want to take home! I admit to being very curious to know where the project will be a year or two from now.

The age of the supertoy is beginning...

My question to the entire list is this, where do you think interactive "stuffed animal" technology will be five, ten, and even twenty years from now?

thank you,

John
