Hello Kitty Roomba Turns Dirt Into Cute
Writing by Evan Ackerman on Wednesday, 17 of September , 2008 at 5:16 am
It was inevitable, I suppose. Sooner or later, just about everything gets Hello Kittyified, and robots are no exception. iRobot Japan will be releasing a very limited edition (only 500) of Hello Kitty Roombas, to go on sale September 30 for about $810. I can’t quite tell what innards you get, but for that price, I should hope it’s one of the professional models.
Okay, are you ready for the obligatory Hello Kitty is evil and is going to kill us all joke? Yeah? Here it is: First the innocent iRobot household vacuums, then iRobot’s tactical division, and then the world! Bwa ha ha ha!

All the models are in the $700-800 range in Japan. They are just expensive there. This is not a pro model. See the Yahoo Finance Message board for IRBT to read more on this. We discussed it two days ago.
