Woot Trackers http://www.bagsofcrap.com/trackers.html a good way to save your f5 button
Woot? Woot.com sells a lot of random gadgets and gizmos. Sometimes awesome things, some times there are some stinkers. They generally sell only one product a day, it changes at midnight eastern time.
What is a Woot off? Speed selling woots! Its a good way for woot to liquidate some of its remaining stock of items, and a chance for you to hit f5 until you get the mythical 1 dollar "bag of crap" or something else cool at a flippin sweet price.
and i wanted to get sleep tonight :P

2 minutes on there and I find this.
It's like going yardsailing.
fuck it, that thing is lame.
all business except for the hat.
What i really am hoping for is a cheap decent wireless keyboard and mouse out of this. they usually have a few throughout the wootoff
Most likely it will come right after one of these:
I guess they only had one.

A couple of Dick Tracy wrist communicators... and now it's a upconvert DVD player with HDMI for $35. Hmmm... I'd get it if it weren't refurbished.
Is 16:9 the aspect that doesn't suck?
The past few Woot-offs have been pretty sad, IMO, although a friend bought one of the off-brand GPS receivers during a non-Woot-off phase and really loves it. The stuff's okay ... when the good stuff actually appears.
Also, fucking Roombas.

It basically works as well as you'd expect, which is not very well at all.

Really? I like mine. I have mine scheduled to clean everyday while i'm at work. It's very nice cos our cat sheds a lot and I'm kinda allergic.
We had to turn off our scheduler as we have door mats next to the doors. Crazy, huh? Seems the roomba can't manage even the most modest of mats, and we tried hard to find one that it would accept.
So its manual now. When we remember to use it.
猿も木から落ちる
Does it suck up the corner of the mat and jam itself? I've also had it wedge itself under the couch. In retrospect, I wouldn't buy a scheduler one. It just works well when you're at home and you set it to clean a room and you're there in case the thing gets itself stuck. Setting it down and pressing a button still beats dealing with the cables and pushing a regular vac, IMO.
Yes. But it doesn't do nearly as good a job as a regular vac, and if you pay attention to the instructions of filter replacement the consumables cost is pretty silly.
I don't mind the base station, but despite all attempts to prevent it occasionally it still vacuums up its own power cord.
猿も木から落ちる
When you say it doesn't do as good a job as a regular vac, do you mean that it doesn't get in corners cos that I've accepted. Or do you mean that a pass over any area with a roomba will leave more behind than a pass with a regular vac? Since I hate vacuuming, I've rationalized the latter by noting that I vacuum 10x as often with a roomba than I ever did with a regular vac. So quantity over quality?
Also, what kind of carpet do you have? Cos it's not for use on 'high pile' carpets. Whatever that means
And yea, the replacement filters and stuff are expensive.
Yea a guy got a Wii close to launch and Woot overnighted it to him for free.
Think about how long it's going to last...
I would think everyone else would want to do the same.
I still use the case for all my DS and PSP stuff, though.
Woot actually has an evil plan to take over the world by activating all the Roombas and Robo-sapiens they've sold us over the years.
Evil Woot Robot Army will destroy us all!
