Well, we got a deal too good to refuse on a Roomba today (If you don’t know what it is.. http://www.roomba.com.au ).
It’s sitting in it’s little dock right now for it’s 3 hr initial charge. Straight out of the box, I put it in the middle of the lounge-room and pressed “clean”, it started cleaning, but quickly realised it was about to run out of battery, so drove itself to it’s dock and settled-in for a charge. It’s almost cute.
The suspense is killing me. My wife has banned me from hiring a cleaner for the house, so we now have our first Home Robot… I plan on buying one robot a year ’till either the house can clean itself, or she gives in…
Stay tuned for info after it’s first run around the house.
I wonder what the dog will do??

UPDATE:
OH my LORD! I’m in love with it…. This thing is fantastic.. One minute it’s up the hallway, the next, it’s under the couch (which has not been cleaned under since we bought the place !), then it’s off across the room and under the dining table, in the kitchen and off who-knows-where next.
