Not sure what's "reassuring" about a six-foot tall metal teddy bear, though, especially if you've just been shot.

Well, they haven't taught it to patch people up yet, but I'm sure that's only a few years away, too.

Holy crap. If this kind of technology is available as soon as 5 years can a romote piloted soldier be all that far away? You could have a team of geeks that kick butt at Half Life sitting in a room far from the battlefield mixing it up. Reminds me of Ender's Game or a droid army. Of course an unstoppable robot army could be turned against us, also by remote control Ah crap! There's always a catch.
