If you are into robots, not just the Hero, someone in California
bought out all the RB5X stock from the original company in Denver and
will be selling kits next year. He's made a mention on the rb5x Yahoo
Group of a target price of $1,400 including charger and speech board.
Tying back to earlier list discussions, this is the robot with the
INS8073 "TinyBASIC" chip - easy to program form either a serial
terminal or PeeCee w/terminal emulator.
Assembled rb5x robots tend to go for around $2K on eBay from what I've
seen, for comparison.
