    Hrmmm, I figure with 4 of these units, I could cover most of my house with mobile cameras, and also keep track of me and the cats. Well, then I would need 4 on each floor, b/c we are all sometimes on the same floor at the same time. Add in some face tracking, and auto-docking/recharge, and I'll test em out.

    @Chris Humphrey: It could have slipped under the rail at a spot where the ballast was low.
