A really smart roomba would remember where it found the dirt, and therefore spend most of its time near the couch where you drop your chip crumbs, but I don't know if we're quite there yet.

In case you really don't know: Where not anywhere near there yet.


Speaking of fun toys, my son got an AIPtek MPVR for Christmas (he wanted to make his own movies, and these were on sale for really cheap). The MPVR plus $15 worth of SD card is a total blast, even if you're not sure you really want your geeky eleven year old making a documentary of your life. The one annoyance is that the movies are in .asf format only, but I guess that's why we have FFmpeg.

How many minutes of video can he record on one SD card? Or how many minutes per GB? My old digital video camera uses digital tape and uses 1 GB for every 5 minutes of raw video -- that's 12 GB per hour. I was a little disappointed when I found out how huge those video files were!
