1. That was a serious question, by the way.

I'm trying to guage whether this is really going to be part of every home's hardware.

4. I want a Roomba...but first, a cat to ride it

like in the adorable Youtube video I've already watched 1,000,000 times.

5. I'm afraid it would cause my cat to have a heart attack...

...or at least cause her to lose control of her bladder. My cat is scared of everything.

6. I'm waiting

I'm waiting for a Roomba that's smart enough to navigate power cords, area rug edges, and maybe even the odd bit of clothing left on the floor. Last I checked, all 3 of these can cause the Roomba to freak out and fail.

Though your pic shows a Roomba along the edge of a carpet. Has technology marched ahead already? Even if carpets are no longer a problem though, the power-cord thing is the real deal-breaker for me.

These days, I just wait until the floor is filthy before digging out the old Electrolux. Vacuuming manually once every 3 months or so is not too bad.

7. Have the "Dirt Dog" sweeper, which is similar

Used it some on hardwood and linoleum and it does OK. Seems to require a VERY long charge to run a pretty short time.
