While we are all for robot vacuum cleaners we can't quite work out who buys them. We suspect it maybe gay men - but they probably nip round sweeping up after them anyway.
Still, nice to see that the cheapo (it costs £300 not a grand) robot cleaner - the Roomba - is coming to the UK. A massive hit in the US, all the user has to do is switch the Roomba on, select the room size - small, medium or large - and walk away. Roomba cleans the room and stops when it has finished.
Other features include stair avoidance sensors, preventing the cleaner from falling down stairs, and intelligent sensors that detect walls, furniture and edges, for wall-to-wall cleaning.
The Roomba comes with a virtual wall unit that blocks areas off to the cleaner, using infra-red beams.
The cleaner will vacuum on a wide range of floor surfaces, including vinyl, wood, tiles and carpet, and adjusts automatically to tackle different coverings.

I've been hunting round, and best price seems to be digitalperspective.co.uk - I ordered the old Discovery, but they've run out so sent me the new 2007 SE model for no extra charge. Bonus! :)
