As a huge fan of Sony's work in robotics, as an owner of their 2nd and 3rd generation Aibo robotic dogs, I'm sad to read that Sony plans to discontinue production of their robots.
Although there is apparently no official word from Sony, this blurb in Sony's financial statement seems clear enough.
Fortunately Sony will continue the research and utilize the technology in other consumer products.
I was looking foward to buying a Qrio at some point.
Checkout some videos of Aibo here.
