Gents,

Just back from a fun time working in Savannah and I see that the out door
robot we discussed earlier is now in pre-order status for a significant
price savings at Parallax.  A good friend of mine sent me the following link
and I thought to pass it on.   The site has much of the key data listed, and
on the right hand side buried in there, a link to an additional info /
photos page is also listed.

Buying one of these *Could* take one from start to finish in only 7 weeks.
Or at least those more interested in the SW and navigation part of the hobby
than in the electrical design or mechanical design / integration side of the
hobby.
