My retarded Roomba - which we've named "Robby" - never finds its way back to the base to recharge... I always have to go searching for the damn thing and hand-carry it back to its base.
They need to put a USB port on these things and make their firmware upgradeable. As it stands, mine is too "dumb" to ever be of much use...
We run a pair of the 530's and love them, but have to agree with the poor self docking. They tend to have to stumble upon the dock. Otherwise, we love them. (though we're open to checking out this new one too)

Roomba works fine for me. By the way, it also docks itself when battery is low, so that's no big deal. Competition is good.
