Ten Things You Can Do With a ConnectR Robot

Ten things you can do with iRobot's new ConnectR that iRobot probably didn't think of:

1. Loan it to your 12-year-old son, who will no doubt get together with his posse and send it into the girls restroom.

2. Take it to the office and send it to budget meetings while you sit at a bar, laptop open, game on the big screen TV.

3. Terrorize the cat from the safety of a hotel room on a business trip.

4. Porn. Hard to say how, but you know someone will figure it out.

5. Rediscover the world from a chipmunk's perspective.

6. A new way to break up with someone.

7. Write it into a new episode of "The Office" as Michael's new way to keep tabs on employees.

8. ConnectR remote soccer.

9. Strap a bucket to the top and let your kid send it around the neighborhood for Halloween while he or she stays home and watches Spongebob.

10. Loan one to Sen. Craig.
