Default Bot Ginger Jar Done - video up on YouTube

Got Wild Hare Idea # 189A done. Like the previous Bot Sugar Bowl, this
one uses a HexBug CRAB micro robot. These things are FUN to play with!
And when on sale at Radio Shack are $9.99, they won't harm the wallet
much.

Charlie - I just looked at your video. Those little bots kick butt!
I will probably be getting the crab bot so I can slip it in something
for my nephew. He is eight, and he loves things like that. They
unnerve him a bit, and he loves it.

From you video, I thought it was alive!

Robert:

Be aware that the two little batteries
a) don't give much OOOMPH so 62 gms is
abaout what it can carry
b) cost about $4 EACH - at least at RS

And these little critters won't stand up
to much abuse. A five year old would
kill one in a New York Minute.

Did you hit the Hexbug.com site and see
their videos? They've got
three or four
other bots.

I had not, but after seeing the address I went right over there.
Those things are really cool.

I think the "crab" that you bought is the best of the group. Neat
idea!
