this looks like a really good product. - the "e-vac"

I agree, it looks much better than the RoboMaid!

*completely personal thought*But, I still like the manual vacuums ... I'm not really into letting appliances do EVERYTHING for me while I am still able to do them! As long as I have legs and hands and can still use them ... I'd rather vacuum on my own!

Too true. I think that not only are manual vacs cheaper, but you don't have to wory about the dog attacking it or the kids getting it.
I honestly don't think it's worth the money...but that's just me.
Besides, I agree with Nadia when she says that as long as we have a hand and two legs to steer and walk with it, we're set. =D Well said, Nadia!

It's an entertaining link, however think of it this way: they're gonna come up with a new one by the time you buy this one. Really, it always seems to happen. So why bother? I like my vacuum...I'm attached to it...in a purely platonic way of course.

wait.. how much does this cost??? ive made a lego one..two actually.. before... and it doesnt fall off ledges and doesnt get stuck on obstacles and what else was there... hmm... im sure i have a video of one somewhere around here.... even if i find it, how do i post it?? help?

That's number 3. the Roomba, the Trillobite, and the e•Vac.

And the roomba's the cheapest and hackable.

I agree. While the roomba and similar, perhaps better devices like this one are pretty cool, for some reason I love to vacuum. It's not really that time consuming and it's enjoyable for some people, like me. It's a cool idea though.

Warning - Randomness follows:

Isn't it time for the whole use of the "e-" term to dissapear?? Just like the term "Extreme".. Since extreme sports became popular in the 90's everything was labeled extreme from juice drinks to Right Guard Extreme Deodorant...

Time for these stupid phrases to realize that thir fifteen minutes of fame are up and to die.. lol Like "Bling Bling" MTV says that's dead, and I actually agree with MTV for once on this one...

E-Mail can stay as it is though.. I guess...

I disagree. Bling bling is not dead. I will keep it alive if it means I have to bust out the defibrilator every five minutes!

But the extreme thing reminds me of a UZC comic... http://www.geocities.com/kyattsuai7/archives/a215.html

Back to the topic now...I wish I had any of the above!
