The Independent Medley
The Independent has run an interesting overview of the state of modern personal robotics.
It contains discussion of the current state of robotics, mentions the DARPA grand challenge, but talks mainly about the kinds of robots people will soon see in their lives. It includes overviews on Wakamaru, the Dyson DC06, the Electrolux Automower, Aibo, and Roboraptor. A good read if you're looking for a general "state of the industry" guide that isn't too comprehensive, but gets the point across.
