A Roomba for your desk

by |
We don't know if the (mis)spelling is intentional, but here's the Robo Vacum, a desktop vacuum cleaner for your workspace. Though the picture somewhat suggests it, this cute little thing doesn't maneuver around your table by itself. You press its button found on the head, and move it to where you may have left crumbs from your Subway sandwich.

Not quite a Roomba, but that's all right since you wouldn't want something automated to fall off your table and make a mess on the carpet anyway. It's available from Wowzzers at US$18.99 and should make a cool novelty gift. Our only gripe: It uses two AA batteries and not the USB ports for power.

About the author

Editor John Chan's love for gadgets can be traced back to the days when he disassembled his toys and couldn't put them back together again. He practices great restraint in not opening up every review product that comes through the CNET Asia Labs, and before that, in his previous job at HardwareZone. He has reviewed items big and small, from mobile phones to projectors and feels everyone should carry a multitool at all times in case of MacGyver situations.
