I, Robot

Dubbed Miuro, it's a somewhat glorified remote-controlled ball sandwiched between two wheels with built-in speakers from audio maker Kenwood. Miuro looks like the product of a one-night stand between iRobot's Roomba and a small ghetto blaster. The Roomba, of course, is the robotic vacuum cleaner on wheels that will bump around the house sucking up debris.

"The robot helps you listen to music wherever you are, without even thinking about it," ZMP President Hisashi Taniguchi told the Associated Press. "Sometimes I don't even have the energy to put on a CD."
