EveR-3, EveR-4 female androids on the way by 2010

If you thought EveR-1 (pictured) and EveR-2 were pretty human-like bots, (they talked and could sing, respectively) then you'll surely love the next iterations, the EveR-3 and EveR-4. Our friends in Korea are currently working on the upgrades to the female-like bot, and the new versions are expected to walk, sing, dance and have "substantially improved intelligence" -- the whole package is expected to be ready by the end of the decade. We expect that the EveR-4 will be able to sing harmony with Korean heartthrob Rain and do a corresponding dance number without getting stage fright, or else we might have to hop on over to Seoul and figure out what's going on for ourselves.

I for one REALLY DO welcome our walking, singing, dancing hot chick robot overlords!

...With a few extra parts thrown in from a Real Doll ;)

WTFOMFGROFLMMFAOBBQ
SHE'S DOING THE ROBOT!

[Maxx @ Nov 30th 2006 5:15PM]

I am sure that my wife does NOT welcome our Real Doll enhanced hot chick robot overlords !

[Paula @ Nov 30th 2006 7:29PM]

You might be wrong. Never know... ~_^

If they could make an adroid of Rain too, I'd want one. ^__^

Quick question, would brothels that employ rombots be illegal? heh.

Funny at first, but the I for one jokes are getting old.

[GJP303 @ Nov 30th 2006 5:54PM]

Wait wait, let me change what i said above^

I, for one, think that these 'I, for one' jokes are getting old.

[mespinosam @ Nov 30th 2006 6:08PM]

yes but do they know hot to cook ?

no? well i guess well have to keep our womans overlords for another decade

[THEY @ Nov 30th 2006 6:24PM]

I'm not buying one until it's model 6 and molded after Tricia Helfur.

[shmengie @ Nov 30th 2006 6:35PM]

do androids cry when you bitch-slap them?

[Chris @ Nov 30th 2006 6:56PM]

She looks faker than Pam Anderson's breasts...or whatever they are.

When this things hits the market, eHarmony and Match.com are going out of business overnight.

Men will have their needs met if this thing can be programmed to meet their fantasies, cook for them, and clean up.

Women will have a harder time, because it will be difficult to make a robot that can buy them a new house and a new SUV and not short-circuit from all their whining.

Wouldn't a female humanoid robot be a gyndroid?

[js @ Nov 30th 2006 8:59PM]

So... does it use Sony batteries?

[cheekky @ Nov 30th 2006 9:36PM]

substantially improved intelligence eh?
we'll just have to wait and see....

[Brian from Texas @ Nov 30th 2006 10:09PM]

I want one that can touch her toes. ; )

[rimshot @ Dec 1st 2006 12:56AM]

FEATURE REQUEST: when she is PMS'ing, her eyes should glow red.

[peter @ Dec 1st 2006 1:29AM]

[Ken @ Dec 1st 2006 8:46AM]

silly peter, girls can't read.

[jav @ Dec 1st 2006 12:30PM]

can someone program them to dance like shakira??.. i def buy one if it does...

[docca @ Dec 1st 2006 2:41PM]

I quite like the Kraftwerk inspired pose... The Mix anyone? :)

[Jon Berry @ Dec 1st 2006 3:18PM]

:O Engadget knows their korean artists.....

Rain isn't as good as Vasia tho. or 조PD

[crystal @ Feb 25th 2008 12:09AM]

I am curious. Do they have life-like vaginas

[OSK @ Aug 24th 2008 1:44PM]

One important question: Is Korea or Japan gonna launch this "product" once its ready or are they gonna built it just for concept purposes like those concept cars which no one can buy. Thanks...I will be devasted if I can't get one. :(
