Palm Powered Robots, Again

Posted by michael on from the berserker dept.

Okay, we give up. Even though we ran this story a few months ago, it seems that Reuters has picked it up and slathered it all over the world, and now everyone is submitting this New! Improved! Palm Pilot Robot. Read the current story anywhere that has a Reuters feed. The design was purchased by a company called Acroname, which has a few neat pictures on their website. Personally, I'm putting in my application to be Goodlife as soon as possible.

    It's kind of pathetic that reuters never mentions who created this monster.

    Greg Reshko made this when i was still in high school with him. He wasn't even a cmu student then, although he was working with the robotics department. This kid deserves more credit than the blurb '...developed at Carnegie Mellon University ...'

    Give greg another pat on the back, and if you are a cute girl in pittsburgh give him a call, i think he is still lonely.
