Very interesting. Was the following one not available when you got yours?
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0002RSKW6/qid=1101762868/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl60/104-9720557-6215919?v=glance&s=home-garden&n=507846 Sharper Image Roomba Discovery Robotic Floor Vac (IR111) >From amazon: * Comes with its own charging/docking station that it automatically returns to when it needs charging! * No bags to replace; just remove and empty its permanent dustbin that is now 4x larger than the previous model. Includes two infrared "virtual walls," three filters and a full-function wireless remote that steers Discovery to any spot. * Measures 13" diameter x 4" high; weighs 6 lbs. One-year warranty. * Roomba� Discovery works like a spiraling pool cleaner to automatically clean up dirt, dust, spilled cereal and pet hair from carpets, rugs, hardwood floors and kitchen tile. Must be the same company. cheers, Jeremy On Tue, 30 Nov 2004 09:51:34 +1300, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi folks, > For those of you, like me, who like useful gadgets (none of you, > right? <g>), here's a take on the vacuum robot we've been using for > the past month: > > http://spis.co.nz/hydes/roger.htm > > There are cheaper variants advertised in NZ -- don't touch them until > you've read the comparison review mentioned on the above page.
