A Japanese company called Little Island has just revealed that they will make a custom robot version of you—for the right price, of course. The doll will be created in your likeness, will be able to speak in your voice and can be controlled remotely via a LAN connection that will work like VoIP to really freak people out. Other than that, the “robot” itself doesn’t seem to have any robot qualities and is more like a plush doll that can speak in your voice. At over $2000 each, having your own Mini Me isn’t cheap, and you’ll have to wait up to 6 weeks after sending in your picture to receive it.  The bot is also essentially just a plush PC itself (complete with a 500MHz Geode processor), so there's certainly plenty of opportunity to expand its capabilities for those so inclined.
