    A must to have

    Everybody has a Roomba and some interest in the HA, MUST have this book. Sure, maybe is possible to find many information present in the book, in the net, but the book is a good starting point, a well collected and guided tour of the Roomba universe. Useful, entertaining, interesting.

    Great book!

    I just got the book and it looks very informative. You can tell a lot of work went into compiling it. With many pictures, illustrations and sample code, this book is a great resource for would-be Roomba wizards....
