The first annual PlayBot calendar. (Might not be SFW) "No robot was permanently harmed or injured during the shooting of the calendar."

Funny idea, crappy pictures. Or is it some kind of robot-sense-of-art I don't get?

Obsession over robopr0n and android prostitution only lead to violence against machines.

Not being a robosexual, I find this of only academic interest. I'd like more information about the robots in the various pictures.

oops, hit post too soon.

I have a question, I've seen people send out warnings/complaints against PDF's...I'm just inquiring, but what is the concern with PDF? Is it because it launches another window? I'm just curious

Looks like they found / made a great first photo, then got this idea (which is a fun idea), but had no further material.

It's just an obnoxious format for viewing on screen. It has the disadvantages of print (complete and total immutability) with none of the advantages (ability to read it in the bathroom). My eyesight is somewhat poor, so I like to enlarge on-screen text to a comfortable size, but PDF doesn't let me do that without having to scroll constantly from side to side.

I'll have to see if I can get Trikebot in next year.

He's sexy in a speedo.

I understand what is supposed to be vaguely sexual about the cover, July, and December, but the rest of them just look like pictures of robots.

NSFW, hortense. And the last one ("sexy") has embedded sound. For shame.

Faint of Butt: More robo-info? They are all capricorn, like long walks on the beach, and prefer Shell to Mobil for reasons of taste.
