Unlimited Functionality!

Now that we have talked about all the technical specifications, I am sure you want to know what exactly can this robo-friend do for you. Talk about the weather, choose colour palettes for woven labels, or just have an afternoon tea, it is all up to you! The key feature on the Palro is an open architecture that allows the user (the tech savvy user with a healthy dose of free time on his hands) to decide what do they want to use the Palro for.

Sadly, so far the Palro is available for a strict elite group. It's not that most people can't afford the base price of $3,300 (although some might be scared out of spending that for what basically is more work for you to do), but the company is planning to sell its first batch of Palros only to research institutions. The little guy will be released on March 15 of the current year.

Robots: They are out to get us

We keep being told by scientists left and right that robots are in no way smart enough to do something so preposterous like willingly cause trouble. After all, robots can't really think, right? Well, a certain Swiss insect expert went ahead and created a batch of robots who have evolved a hive mind and learned to work together in groups to trick outsiders. Yes, you heard right, the robots don't band to cure cancer, tell jokes or talk about the weather; they work together to trick outsiders. So far, the little robots are up to no more than simple tricks. Changing the fabric labels on your clothes to make you wash a temperature sensitive fabric on warm water would be an overachievement. Having learned tricks and communication on their own however, we're sure there is nothing that could possibly go wrong with this in the near future... nothing at all.
