Readybot Hires Roomba
Ya gotta love the Readybot. It was devised by a team of engineers and designers in Silicon Valley who arranged a contest (a la DARPA Urban challenge) to build a kitchen cleaning bot. The result is the Readybot, who has been around for awhile, but has recently decided it needs help. So the team added a Roomba to pick up the little stuff. The group is hoping to expand the growing domestic robotics industry with its publicity. We thought we wanted one of these robots before, now we are convinced. Now if they would just teach Readybot to clean the cat box.

Robo Vacuum - Sweep Up Buzz Lightyear Style
For $14.99 you can get one of these robo shaped desk vacuums, and finally clean up those pencil shavings. Simply push the top button to activate suction and slide over dry crumbs, pencil shavings or other debris. Powered by two AA batteries (not included). We're pretty fond of the blue-black robot, but perhaps RED is all the rage in desktop robot vacuums these days.
