Considering what big business DVDs have become, this could mean a big shift in how TV is watched and paid for. "Over the next five years," says NBC Universal Television Group president Jeff Zucker, "the world is going to change. Broadcast television will remain an incredibly important vehicle in society...

Wag its limbs, turn its head and twist its torso, and it memorizes all of the moves for later. You can also execute more complicated programs, as with the original, only this robot remembers its moves until you program in a new plan. Unlike its predecessor, this one speaks understandable English, too-speaks, in fact, of many things: Its likes (world domination) and dislikes (when you press Shift1, Shift2, Shift3...
