Do you have your robotic dog?

Perhaps if they had made robotic cats instead of dogs, Sony would have had more success with their artificial pets. But alas, Sony will soon cease "reproduction" of the Sony Aibo, which leaves one to wonder what happens to support of future Aibos. Already you can control Aibo wirelessly (with Sony's help), but will we see the support groups grow, or shrink? More open source sharing of how to control your dog, or less? As I have a "biological" cat, it doesn't make much difference to me, but the effect on the robot community will be interesting.
