Small robots in 2008

How many teams have toyed around with the idea of making the smallest robot you can with the required components?

These can be advantagous as far as just running laps if you don't want to hurdle balls.

I'm predicting we will see some 1' x 1' robots who's mission is to just to race around the track doing laps and gaining those points as fast as they can.

Hopefully designers of these robots will at the very least take the time to protect themselves from a 10lb ball dropping on them from 7+ feet.
