iCybie is a low cost Robotic Dog, each leg has 3 motors and there are 
3 motors to control the head and 1 to control the tail.
It has 8 user-programmed voice commands and responds to it's IR remote.

To load user code into the robot, you must either buy a ROM programming
kit for $100 or populate the blank board that comes with the Cybie with
two Flash chips. For full software development, a serial interface can 
be added to the robot. If you buy the [http://www.i-cybie.com/English/eaccessory/EaccEnter.html walk-up charger] for $70, it comes
with a prebuilt ROM card and a 1400mAh battery pack. I have a Super I-Cybie (SIC) that can program
ROM carts.

This is an amazing little robot for it's current price of under $100,
under $200 for a full software development setup.
