Shucks.... So did they say when they should have some in? I was thinking about getting me one or two. If the irobot create has the same wheels as the roomba then it will blow the boebot out of the water in traction.
they informed me 3 or 4 weeks till shipping. said they wont bill until the item is shipped. i have never seen·a roomba in person so i have no idea how big the "create"·will be. i like the idea of a large cargo area and·a·collection of (perfected) collision avoidence·sensors, the sensors alone·save me lots of trial and error work.·the self docking charge station is just about the·greatest benifit. now i can concentrate on·my software design which is really my strong point.
Wow... I guess I shouldn't hold my breathe. Either they didn't have any in stock when the started to sell the product or its a great hit and can't keep it in stock. I am will be ordering one soon but don't know if I can wait a month to get one. What are some things you plan on doing with it?
It's Here. Arrived earlier than promised. Not bad ordered the 18th recieved the 24th. Well its very interesting and large, will let everyone know more in the future. So now I have to go the Yahoo iRobot group and see learn more.
