From the upcoming December 2015 Star Wars movie, meet BB-8, the app enabled Droid.

Here's what Amazon says about it: Over the years, the magic of Star Wars has always lived on screen and in our imaginations. Thanks to our advancements in technology, we’ve made it possible to bring a new part of Star Wars: The Force Awakens into your home. Meet BB-8 - the app-enabled Droid that's as authentic as it is advanced. BB-8 has something unlike any other robot - an adaptive personality that changes as you play. Based on your interactions, BB-8 will show a range of expressions and even perk up when you give voice commands. Set it to patrol and watch your Droid explore autonomously, make up your own adventure and guide BB-8 yourself, or create and view holographic recordings. It’s now possible to explore the galaxy with your own trusty Astromech Droid by your side. BB-8 is more than a toy - it’s your companion. $149.99. Amazon Prime, but not in stock as of 9/10/15. There are many places like Think Geek, ToysRUs, etc. selling BB-8.

And Dick's take: I think kids and Star Wars fans will love this Droid. There's a bit of a learning curve, but with just the little bit I toyed with it, it was fun. Watch the Giz Wiz Video for a few hints on what to expect setting up the BB-8 the first time.
