Anybots has a new telepresence robot, the QB — and while it certainly seems to be an advance on the QA, which we saw at CES 2009 , we gotta admit that it’s not nearly as cute as its predecessor. Marketed towards CEO-types, this bad boy can be controlled via your PC (or eventually your Mac), and it features WiFi b/g connectivity, 5 megapixel camera, speaker, microphone, and a max speed of 3.5 MPH. To be honest, having your boss follow you around the office with a webcam-on-wheels sounds more like a NewsRadio plot than effective office management, but certainly there’s someone rich and crazy enough to drop $15,000 on one of these.
