But I have a question: What kind of kid goes outside in 100 degree temperatures to play with a robot instead of slugging around inside watching TV? Sounds more like some crazed ME to me... ;-)
Outside air would be nice - if it was cooler.

I'm guilty. He and his friends were talking about science projects, the news on TV (Iraq) and neat stuff like iRobot's little devices. So I thought a little robot would be a wonderful learning experience. . . and - well . . . . . it has been.

He rarely watches TV.
