This effect actually has been available for some time - it's called 
"chorus" ;).
Seriously though, you can do that with about any of the programmable 
multi-effects from the last 10 to 15 years. Use a pitch shifter and link 
some modulation source to the pitch parameter. You can have it working 
randomly, or level-dependant (i.e. louder notes get bended) etc.

And regarding the humanize effect - I believe the newer generation of 
Boss/Roland guitar thingies (GTPro, VG-99) also offer something like 
that for some faux-double-tracking effect.
