Mag, There was a link to an article about it in the original posting. Not only does it climb stairs, but it is able to raise itself to eye-level. It does this automatically using sensors, so the user doesn't need to worry about it. I called to see if I could get in on a test, but they've already begun. It should be out in around two years, pending approval. Their website is at http://www.indetech.com, and there's more information available there. ~Joy~ [log in to unmask] "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups." http://home.earthlink.net/~joy0823 http://www.slambook.com/slambooks/signsb.asp?sb=joy0823 http://www.alladvantage.com/go.asp?refid=BNM469
