So you've got your Roomba a cute little RoomBud but still find it too robot-like for your taste? You know, all efficient and whatnot. Well, the same kids that created the RoomBuds have now released the myRoomBud Is Alive Dashboard, which promises to give your Roomba a "personality" to match your RoomBud. You'll need a RooTooth interface or other Bluetooth connection, but with dashboard app you can make your Roomba hop (sorta) like a frog or growl (sorta) like a tiger. It also purports to make your Roomba act like a French Maid, although we're not sure what that entails.


myRoomBud is alive, alive!
