RE: Re: Roomba Update



Paul

I think waiting for a sensible time to buy goes against the ethics of the
UKHA group ;-)  How many people here have owned a squarial, digital compact
cassette players, OnDigital box etc etc (me for all 3 by the way!)

In all seriousness, I've read enough independent reviews on numerous US and
UK web sites that have satisfied me that it's worth ?200ish.  It's obviously
not as good as the Electrolux version, but that costs 7 times more, so you
pays your money....

Once I've got a finalised price (which will not be until this time tomorrow
at the earliest), I'll post all the relevant links for everyone to make
their choice.

Are you going to wait for a reliable review of this unit before
proceeding?
