They exist since many years, but only now I can say there could be one of them in each house. I’m talking about robots: still not the one whose talks and carry out the housework, but very strange and specialized devices.
Out of all different models available at www.irobot.com, the vacuum cleaner impressed me because it moves autonomously in the house, it can cover all the surfaces of the rooms and it can turn back to the base to recharge itself.
Actually, I’ve first noticed it in the pilot episode of Knight Rider 2008 (broadcasted in the USA) and then I found it again in the Net.
The prices go from 200 to 500 Dollars, about from 200 to 500 Euros if you are willing to buy it in Italy (with the actual rate change it is better to buy in Euros from Italy, but if there is no one that can bring it for free, you have to pay high duty taxes).
It could seems strange, but I’m sure that soon we all be surrounded from these “things” that carry out the most common, boring and repetitive housework while we are at work or on holiday...
