This was not in the main convention hall they were down the road with all the companies from Asia and Linux booths. I mentioned to the guy that the only way to make that robot better was to put a shotgun on it. The look of horror that crossed his face made me and my friend Dean laugh for days afterwards. My how things have changed. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 18th 2007 4:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on iRobot awarded $286 million military contract]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/irobot-awarded-286-million-military-contract/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/irobot-awarded-286-million-military-contract/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well, iRobot was always a military company first, from what I've gathered. They just spun off a civilian enterprise a few years ago. Judging from the sales guy's reaction, they are probably fairly separate and distinct entities, at least internally. And that's probably a pretty good idea in my opinion :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bbb3108]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 18th 2007 4:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on iRobot awarded $286 million military contract]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/irobot-awarded-286-million-military-contract/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/irobot-awarded-286-million-military-contract/</guid><description><![CDATA[It was in 2000 and they had 'My Real Baby' and the home security robot. I don't know if they had the military in mind back then but I was right on the money.
