Is The Ez-B Right For Me?

Hello everyone! Neogirl101 here! The reason that I joined this forum is because I see the Ez-robot platform as very promising- but there is a suggestion I would like to make.

I am planning to use a small tablet bolted on to the bot to run the control software, so I can use that mic, but I am just making sure I am not barking up...
