| "No word yet on whether or not the Robomow will one day have an arm that picks small items up and puts them in a bin for you..." (Bill Christensen 5/5/2007 9:50:53 PM ) |
| "Here's a short video showing Robomow in action.

| "This gadget should be named in honor of the late, great U.S. writer Clifford D. Simak, the first science-fiction visionary to showcase a Robomow-like device in his 1950 novel "City"." (LV 5/7/2007 3:29:48 PM ) |
| "Despite the fact that this description by Simak basically "spec's out" what you would need in a robot lawn mower, the founders of Robomow found inspiration elsewhere.
Udi Peless writes "I read a few science fiction books when I was younger but can not say that this has inspired me. My dad was an engineer and I think that this was the main influence." He also remarks that he does not recall reading about robot lawnmowers - so no conflicts about prior art there!" ( 5/14/2007 8:49:42 PM ) |
| "We love our robotic lawn mowers. We have a Robomower that does our backyard and a Lawnbott that does our front and side yards. They do an absolutely amazing job. You can check out some great reviews at bamabots.com" (Preston 6/20/2007 2:45:36 PM ) |
