Hi, I have designed a clever, pro little bot, its a small design with lots of cool functions. I have put a video link & my blog link too. Please leave a comment on what you think.

Yes, research in to the EZ-B (Really these forums are only for the EZ-B and ARC/EZ-SDK, constant discussions about different controllers or only discussions about other controllers don't sit well as a few older posts demonstrate). It's a very powerful board while at the same time very simple to use and program. I don't know about you but I sure like the simplicity of being able to change a robot's behaviour that easily and revert back in just a few clicks (or one click does it).
If your platform is easily adaptable to fit the EZ-B I'd be more than happy to buy one from you (price dependant of course)
Second i think is the same size as your board and cheaper and has hundreds of fuctions,speech,ipad, bluetooth and so much more to list.
PLUS mostly everyone looking to money thats why we buy broken toys and add EZB to it.
PLus your would be hard to program so it mostly does one thing and cant be changed like the EZB with fairly easy scripts.
his design is called micromouse
micromouse robots
As for your 3D printing experience, we have a big announcement and new ARC software coming out shortly. It contains 3D design components, as well as a CAD design built in. And as usual, the new ARC software will be backward compatible with the existing platform.
Everyone here builds a robot from scratch. Even if it starts as a toy - it's still customized by the individual. There is no reason to program microcontrollers anymore - this is 2013... Even less than a hundred years ago, carpenters stopped chopping down trees to make their own wood. Why do roboticists need to program microcontrollers anymore?
The whole goal is to create a robot... Not re-invent the wheel. That's why EZ-Robot exists.
Stay tuned for our upcoming press release - EZ-Robot is embracing the 3D Printer... and making it even easier to build your dream robot!
BUT then there is many non programmers and where the EZB comes in.
One reason one of the biggest robot clubs there is in seattle ,only into programming micro's
tried to post about the EZB many times and seen others tell about it,but they still dont like it.
For me i love my EZB more then most of the guys here,but also love building other types of robots using other processors or operating systems.
I have a very long list of all types,but EZB WILL have the most,i have only 20 EZB right now and only takes 30% of my designs so need to buy another 40 to 50 more EZB
I hacking toys for robots ,but built many from scratch.
No one is impressed with a robot that bounces off walls with a distance sensor in 2013... Now, invent a time machine and visit 1985! You'll blow their socks off
Wait until you see Revolution
Main reason i love your design so many features and easy to make scripts.
