I just saw on the news where a new type of lawn mower has just been developed. Basically, it works pretty much like those vacuums that will vacuum your home without you having to touch them. The difference with this lawnmower is that it uses GPS technology to mow the lawn, totally hands free! They didn't say how soon it would be before this technology will be available to the general public, but can you imagine how that will change yardwork? Just push a button and the lawnmower will mow the grass while you kick back on the deck enjoying a nice cold glass of tea! What will they think of next?

I'm not sure how this will work as I studied GPS systems while in the military... once you are within about 30 feet they are not that accurate.... that would put my mower out in the street or in the yard next door. I do have one of the vacuums though and I love it. It does not truly map a room like it advertises, it just has lots of sensors and fancy patterns to make sure it gets the whole room.
