OK...a sex bot was bound to happen and at $7K per unit, this guy (who somehow appropriately looks like Seinfeld George's younger brother) is probably going to rich.
Now come the obvious questions (in no particular order of import):
- What about cleanup?
- Is there more than one type of simulated orgasm?
- If they produce a male version, will the two bots be able to perform for the voyeurs?
- What will be the legal age barriers on the models?
- Are there plans for S&M models that scream, bruise and/or bleed and then heal?
- How much will airlines charge for the extra seat when the owner travels?
and most importantly
7. Given China's hugely unbalanced ration of males to females, will this product become the most exported US product and serve to eliminate the trade deficit?

She even comes loaded with five distinct "personalities," from Frigid Farrah to Wild Wendy, that can be programmed to suit customers' preferences.
"There's a tremendous need for this kind of product," said Hines, a computer scientist and former Bell Labs engineer.
Roxxxy won't be available for delivery for several months, but Hines is taking pre-orders through his Web site, TrueCompanion.com, where thousands of men have signed up
