CNET News.com gets freaked out when we link to their stories and use their pictures, so thank god iRobot has a picture of their new Roomba Scheduler on their site already. The Schedular is pretty similar to the Discovery, except it includes a timer function that can be set to activate the robot on a schedule (hence…). It’s sort of an obvious, if welcome, upgrade, so the additional news that iRobot will be encouraging tinkerers to hack in additional features into this model is great. A Roomba with a camera is cool, but I think it’s time somebody figured out how to make a Roomba that’s smart enough to not eat cords.
