well, we only just got it. I will tell you that there must be many other desperate people out there, because we had a bit of a wait for it. I ordered it on 1/20 or 21? I think- and I got it yesterday. They were backordered- but the wait wasn't too bad. After we show it to all our friends and neighbors there may be a bit more of a wait- since I think they all want one :-)

One person complained to a relative of mine about Roomba- but she's a dog breeder, and I did wonder if the dog hair might have fouled the unit. I have heard from two other people that Roomba is fabulous- so we'll probably be getting that next.

If I have any problems with Scooba I will tell you. Today it got itself in and out under the table and the chairs- it did get stuck under the lip of the dishwasher, so I put a towel under that so it would not happen again, and I used a couple of cardboard boxes to keep it in the kitchen- it comes with a "virtual wall"- but that puts out a triangular signal, so it wasn't cleaning one small corner of the kitchen, and I couldn't have that, could I?
