I've seen one of those before, but it didn't look much like R2. I guess it only made sense for them to model it like one, though.

This little puppy (http://www.sharperimage.com/us/en/catalog/productview.jhtml?pid=26748600&pcatid=2&catid=201) is very similar to the R2 one you posted above, and will run you about $700. I'm hoping it does a lot more than our little domed friend, for that price.

I'm pretty sure it does. But Artoo doesn't really need to be that sophisticated, just robotically do the things that were sent to it through a remote control 25 years ago.

For a hundred bucks, all he would have to do is bring me a beer and the newspaper.

I still want a life-sized Artoo...

...But I'll probably get this anyway. You know, just for the principle of the matter. ;)
