First Roomba, Now Scooba?


I think I know what I want for Christmas. What next: bathrromba?
If iRobot has its way, millions of people around the world will soon be retiring their mops and buckets. The Cambridge, Massachusetts–based company is finally announcing the follow-up to its remarkably popular Roomba robot rug and floor vacuum: the Scooba robot floor-cleaning system. It's the first household robot designed to sweep, scrub, mop, and dry tile, linoleum, and wood floors. The company is also touting a major partnership coup: The Scooba's cleaning fluid will come from Clorox Co., which makes household cleaning products.
