Bin noch nicht dazu gekommen ihn mir näher anzuschauen, aber der iRobot Create (www.irobot.com) sieht recht brauchbar aus und ist ziemlich preiswert.
If anyone is ordering iRobots, I'm in for one as well!
These things are quite robust, high-quality and reasonably priced for what you get. They should be quite hackable as well, but they use a relatively weak Atmel microcontroller, so you don't want to install Linux on it. Attaching a Gumstix to it and talking to the robot in real-time over serial/USB should be easy though.
I'm thinking about buying a bunch of them (probably about five) for quite some time. So if someone else is interrested too, we could order a 10-pack: http://store.irobot.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=2591511 But they are sold without batteries,control module and any additional goodies. So altogether you end up with something like 250$ per robot. cu andreas
