I grew up in the era of The Jetsons, and am still grumpily awaiting my jetpack. So pardon me if I don't get all excited—or "mindful"—over this half-keg on Segway wheels.
...so robonapping (and subsequent scrapping if not ransom) will appear in the grand book of ordinances real_soon_now? ("They'll send out tracking info!" meh, car trucks make pretty good faraday cages)
For $3,250 you could pay a human being $15/hr. to carry stuff for you, for a total of 216 hours - which is probably more use than you'd get out of one of these 'bots before it got stolen or wrecked. All we need is some tech innovator to come up with a gig-economy-based, carry-my-shit-app.

"all for the reasonable price of $3,250"

I love the idea of my own personal robot to carry the heavy load. Price is a bit steeeeeeep though!
I for one welcome our robot overlords..... we can get rid of all the high priced minimum wage jobs.
