Persacom Lite

A Japanese firm is producing dolls in the likenesses of their owners for little more than USD $2,100!

More from Annanova:

Robotics firm Little Island claim they can create a tiny likeness of anyone - even replicating the sound of their voice.

Customers place their £1,500 order and simply submit a photo of the person they'd like their new toy to resemble.

Six months later, and their very own Mini-Me will turn up on their doorstep.

The dolls can be taught to sound like the customer via an in-built microphone, a computer and voice recognition software.

The robots, which are created in a technology centr just north of Tokyo, are equipped with 80 gigabytes of storage and a webcam.

The advanced version can even download the latest news and weather and then read back the reports - in your voice.

Read the news back to me? Oh Boy!
It'll save me the time reading the news in the morning and before bed... I want!
Although... I don't know if I'd like waking up to my own voice reading the news... I might put myself back to sleep =/

Look like me? Bad enough I look like Me! To save the hearts of all the women in the world... I think I'll have to pass.

That would be kinda cute/cool, but then, it speaks the truth and it might put a feature on the doll that I have, but don't want to accept XD
