Just somethin I thought was funny- hubby and I were watching the Discovery channel the other night, some rerun where they sent a robotic camera up a small shaft in the Great Pyramid to see where it went. Wouldn't ya know, the techs in the background handling the robocam were all wearing iRobot T-shirts lol Viva iRobot! 8)
Coincidentally, I also saw 'I, Robot' the movie recently, anyone else kinda surprised iRobot let that slide? Rampaging robots and all y'know :roll: |

| "IRobot is from a book or something. They don't have sole claim anymore than MS can claim "windows" |

The book "I Robot" was written by Isaac Asimov in 1950. iRobot named themselves after the book!
The movie is an adaptation of the book, so they technically have more rights to the name then iRobot does... |
