Wired.com recently posted a very interesting comparison between the Wowwee/Hasbro BIO-Bugs, and the Sony Aibo. Interesting comparison! For those wanting more information, there's the BIO-Bug vivisection page at Solarbotics.net.
Holiday Shipping
Dave Hrynkiw
December 11, 2006
Another year has snuck by, and here we are on the cusp of another winter holiday season!
If you want to give a Solarbotics Kit (and we hope you do...) to somebody special this year, you should be aware of our shipping deadlines. It's not recommended to use ground shipping now (which can take up to 3 weeks), so unless if you celebrate Ukrainian Christmas (January 7th), go with these guidelines:
- For US orders, your option is Purolator/DHL Courier (2 business days, so Wednesday the 20st by 2:00pm MST at the latest!).
- Domestic (Canadian) orders get an extra day or so leeway. For Western Canada your options are Xpresspost (2-3 business days - Dec.19) and Purolator (1-2 business days - Dec.20 before 2:00pm MST).
- Eastern Canada should use Purolator (1-2 business days - Dec.20 before 2:00pm MST).
- Atlantic Canada can use Purolator (1-2 business days - Dec.20 before 2:00pm MST). International orders even have less time, so check your list and get your shopping done!

Terribly sorry about the outage over the last day and a half. Somebody at the hosting company missed their morning cup'o'coffee, and missed a setting for our website. Be assured, we're still up and running 100% (other than the website...).
