Re: Source for Orbit Ball
1. Walmart may have them. 4 on Oahu, we found a total of 5 in 4 Walmart stores.  3 were about to fall apart.
2. Walmart said it was a discontinued item and they were no longer getting more of them, according to one Walmart manager who looked it up.
3. They are not durable, especially that fabric. We already plan on using duct tape to hold it together after everyone kept touching it.
4. Based on initial robot design ideas our team threw around, we need a whole lot more than 5 + 1 that we got to be able to effectively design, build and test a robot.
5. I'm worried about the availability if even the original manufacturer dont have them at the moment.
