The SunSeeker headbot should've been ready 3 weeks ago, but probably will
be available in another week or so yet (have to finish documentation). Will
go for ~$100.

The ScoutWalker 2 has somewhat more work. Although we had a beta version at
the LANL workshop, I'm still not totally satisfied with it. I will have to
make changes to the schematic and PCB (read that as "$$$!"). Probably
available September, for ~$300 to $350.

I'm thinking of bumping the hextile experimenter's kit ahead of the SW2,
just because I'm getting sick of working on the SW2...

Regards,
Dave
