<p>Where else would you expect a high tech robot to live but in Akihabara?
</p><p>Near Akihabara in the Dai Bldg 2nd fl lobby is Studio Asimo. A display for Honda's concept robot Asimo. When he is not showing off his skills at some convention or saving Tokyo from giant alien invaders, Asimo likes to kick back and enjoy a cup of coffee from the cafe here. 
</p><p>Actually Akihabara is full of robot related shops and displays. The are lots of stores here that sell componants for home built robots and rumor has it that Yodobashi Akihabara transforms into a giant price destroying robot called Yodo-tron. 
</p><p>Wait don't think I was supposed to mention that last thing. Please pretend you didn't read that.

If you could have a real working robot of your own, what would it be able to do?
