Oh, yeah. That thing was cool, too. I think it was rehydrating or something like that.

There is only one way of avoiding the war – that is the overthrow of this society. However, as we are too weak for this task, the war is inevitable. -L. Trotsky, 1939

Robots helpers for the house. You watch those "World of TOMORROW!" things they made in the 50s and 60s and they were constantly promising that we'd have robots that could do housework. Now half a century on, where's my damn robot!

And jetpacks! I want to come home in my jetpack and be greeted at the door by my housework robot!

Actually we have those. Not the humanoids, but little vacuum cleaner and lawn mowing drones are gaining in popularity.

I think I'll side with Tyyr. If only because his pic doesn't look like it'd topple over from moving too quickly. ;)
