in the next few days, one of the most anticipated products (by me at least) will be released for purchase. the parraot AR drone! i am so excited. i have been watching the dev on this product for almost a year now and i seriously want one of these things. at just $300 (it sounds like a lot i know but consider the product) this will be extremely affordable for basically a helicopter run on remote control. the difference is that this thing auto-balances and hovers and is controlled by your iphone! awesome-sauce!!!! it has a protective foam hull for running indoors that has foam loops that go around the 4 rotor blades and a different hull for outside that is lighter an you can get higher altitudes. enough talk go look!!!

But how am I supposed to spy on people with only 12 minutes of battery life?
