You ran out of room for servos... Really? I'm sorry but the use of gear driven servos is just disappointing in 2009. Show me a break through toy that uses programmable magnetic linear servos and solid state gyroscopic balance for bipedal walking and I will be interested. We should be aiming for something like Teddy from Steven Spielberg's AI. We have all the hardware today. The challenge should be getting the AI working in operating systems used in toys, computers, smart phones and vehicles. I should have a virtual secretary that hops from device to device tailored to my lifestyle organizing all my data for me based on learned experience of my preferences. Hello Information Age? I'm drowning in information and I don't have the time to sort it. Really the AI and the power source should be the only real challenges at this point.
