Amazon.com today has a 50% off deal on a Roomba 500, so I finally broke down and ordered one.
Are they are cool and useful as I've heard they are?

Noo! It'll start multiplying and shooting lasers at people in an attempt to achieve world domination.
Wait, those are Zoombas.
Nevermind.

Well, I just want one that will sing while it works: "Roomba loomba loomba de doo I've got a floor to vacuum for you" Followed by a moral lesson, preferably taught in some unspeakably horrible way.

I LOVE ROOMBAS.
They're so funny! Although I'm not sure how useful they are.

My parents have one. It can be utterly annoying if you're in the room (as with any vacuum cleaner) but mostly we just turn it on and let it run until the battery is flat. So far we have no complaints.
Mantorok: The path the Roomba takes is almost completely random: It's like Brownian motion except the angle that it changes to when it hits something may not be a predicted one.

I wish I could insert the Gilmore Girls clip on the Roomba.

With three dogs and 6 cats I figured it would blow up on me on the first time out. Although I have considered buying one.
