One missap is a bad PR thing, but the Asimo has had a hell of a lot of development done to it. If they can solve the power issue (being it's size, it has a 15min autonomy), that thing will start kicking ass. Better be on it's side.

I love how virtually all of this generation of walking robots have the little backpack-looking counterweight to keep them upright. It makes them look like they're on their way to futuristic elementary school.
When they solve the problem that all these things look like they've shit their pants when they walk I will think they are cool. Up until then, it's robot jox all the way.
