I may have just wasted $100, but it sure looks like fun. It's today's special on http://www.woot.com (8/12/2009). It's a robot that has a built in web cam, senses motion, MP3 player, utilizes VOIP so you could potentially call your robot from work and talk to whoever is in the room with it at your house. The motion detector is awesome, it detects motion and sends an email picture to your email address of the intruder or dog or cat or snaggle tooth. Anyways check it out if you have time. This will be great to fuck with the dogs.
