i would be terrified of the slippery slope.
1. robot that can hug
2. robot that can perform the heimlich maneuver
3. robot that will crush you with some tweaked / injected params
i'd argue there is no place at all for this kind of faux emotion/interaction in robots, it's just creepy.

To apologize for it's operating system. I have a Samdroid, and it doesn't hug me, probably because it can't hold a charge for more than 4 hours.
root that shit and put a custom rom on like ACS ICS.
your mind will boggle when you see it lasting for a whole DAY -- like, 24 hours.

don't feed the trolls here. I get 2 days with heavy usage on a 2 year old phone with a crappy battery.
