Do you see the Scrubber taking a lead over the compeditors, and can you talk about any proposed advancements? And what do you plan on calling the new Scrubber company?

What sort of hardware are we looking at? Basic model, or one with lots of extras? Kosh: We can't forget the low-end mop market that's been the mainstay, but our high-end users would be disappointed if we discontinued our more expandable floor scrubbing models.
