1yIt was great to meet you! Thank you for including Meloscene in your highlights!
Well done! You forgot to mention though that Worx lawnmowers were not -just- one of the robot lawnmowers. They looked like props from Mad Max Fury Road that could probably mow a corn field.

1yThis is the reason I need to stay an extra day. No matter how early we get in, there is no way to cover all of the convention spaces and see what each has to offer. Well done and thanks for the links.
