Looks interesting, I'm just wondering how well it will work in reality, since it's still in the pre-order stage.

Looks like a flying Roomba.

Looks like it has a good in-built self-preservation instinct. Self-awareness is next and then the Terminators will be coming... transformer

I may be queer, but the first idea i had when hearing about those mini drones, was how to down them.
Apart from a shotgun one might use an old microwave oven, I guess i will give that a try biggrin

Only joking, i think those drones are pretty cool. However, i would not want them to spy on me, or my bedroom, or .. at all.
