Is it advisable to get your feet wet while working with electronics?
All kidding aside, this is totally something I need to purchase.
The robot on the front looks like a bald domo-kun
@brad – i was thinking of the same joke. but I’m trying to cut down a bit on those ;)
@D4rk – domo-kun is really a robot?!?
Do I detect a little bit of flirtation in this video? Eh? Hmm?
All right then 450 Hail Marys and Our Fathers while while wearing a hairshirt.
@D4rk: I’ll agree there is a little Domo-kun action going on there, sickingly sweet kawaiiness. Before you call me a “hater” let me tell you i have a Domo-kun cellphone theme.
I’ve been waiting for one of these to show up in the maker store, its about time! $50 well spent! (haven’t got it yet but I’m hoping)
