Default Roomba Vacuum cleaner question

We have one here, battery life sucks, but besides that they're pretty cool!
works great and is quite a show if you're really bored. lol, Seriously, if
the carpets are really bad, it won't do it with out a long time involved,
but for normal cleaning it's pretty good. Some pros are that it comes with
"virtual walls" 2 little sensor things that will send out a signal to stop
it if you want to keep it in a particular area of the house, or if there's a
certain piece of furniture it gets stuck under or something though we don't
have anything like that, it does just fine with out furniture. Also, if it
does get stuck it will keep beeping to let you know where it is as well as
if the battery dies in the middle of use it will keep beeping until you get
it, I don't know if it will eventually stop or what we haven't let it go
that long after it stopped moving. Only bad side I see to it is you have to
take it all apart every 8 to 10 uses and clean the axles and all moving
parts, but that's not a big job either.

Hey, I consider carpet cleaning as a form of home repair, sooo
.................

Anyone use a Roomba vacuum? A little robot frisbee looking thing that is
supposed to be automatic.

Likes/dislikes? Pros/Cons?
