While I will admit willingly that I missed the beginning of this
discussion, and may miss the entire point,  I'll jump into the fray willingly.

Just the other day, I was looking through travel brouchures and saw this.
I believe it was offered by THOMSON Charter vacations from toronto, &
possibly a few U.S. Cities.  One of the hotels that they offer, I believe
in Barbados.  Has the option of having the robot odyssey suite.  They had
most of a page description of the luxuries etc.  I do remember that the
cost was astronomical, like an extra $ 1000 per week.
It may also have been sunquest charter from toronto (not thomson) and it
may not have been barbados, but it was between the bahamas & barbados at least.
There wasn't a lot of technical info, really sales & vacation sales glib, but
it was rather interesting.  Use your own robot to go to the bar & get a drink
instead of calling room service.
