Cool stuff CMCOFFEE. I couldn't wait to get my hands on a set of NinjaBlocks http://www.ninjablocks.com when they came out, and I use them for a heap of (probably unnecessary) things at home - great fun. All sorts of quirky 'thing connectedness'! Currently contemplating connecting the washing machine to the dog over wifi... not sure it will end well. :) Cheers Paddy.

iRobot indeed. The world will be very different in the next few years/decades. Interesting times ahead.
