Should I get the I-sobot?

Hello I have a Bioloid beginner kit with 8 servos and I was just wondering about another robot to acompany it, since I don't want to spend too much money that could go to more servos for the BIoloid I was thinking about the I-sobot. Is it worth getting it for maybe pitting my Bioloid against it? Also where can I get one for fairly cheap?



Thanks,
Phil.

the Isobot was designed as a remote-control toy. The bioloid is a tool for learning robotics.

Yes I know, I was just asking if the I-sobot was a good second robot to get if I already had the Bioloid beginner. I know the differences between the robots are immense I was just asking if it was worth getting, how ever based on the reviews and how much it does I think it was a very good deal for $100! Although I haven't gotten it yet it should get here today!

I remember one seminar that i've attended was "youth for Information Technology" and their main objective is to make student aware and can be able to create a robot.

I've made a robot but its a sumo car.

but unfortunately i've only used it 3 times but after that i can not move.

i don't no the problem.

i used a logo programming language to it.
