Motorola Droid Can it Run a Robot?

Can you use a DROID, or other smartphone to operate a Robot directly? The ads infer that a Droid is better than other smart-phones, because you can reallly get stuff done with it. Basically, that is true. Without any apps, or only with free apps, you can still approach the phone as a programmer.

This is an ongoing project started on CwhatIcanDo.com so someday, someone will figure out the process for sending messages back and forth from a robot base, like the i-robot Create. Check out the more in depth coverage of the project at C What I Can Do website.
