Perhaps you shouldn't think of this as just androids, but also as prosthetics. Imagine lifelike robotic prosthetics.

I agree with everything you said except this.
I, Robot was a great movie. It wasn't true to the book, and in that aspect it was bad, but it was an overall great [I]movie[/I].

I enjoyed it as well, though general consensus is that most people didn't like it because it wasn't true to the book. Can't please everyone, I guess.
