"At a recent conference at Amazon Web Services for software developers, an executive from iRobot, which makes the Roomba vacuuming robot, talked about using the cloud to map homes and human behavior in houses with potentially “hundreds” of connected devices. Doing something like that would require instantaneous connections."

What..no camera sensor?....get an instant message from Amazon...."We notice you lack..."

How would you like a Roomba wondering around your home with all kinds of sensors, while laying out and transmitting your floor plan....perhaps with image?

Might as well throw in home surveillances by a vacuum cleaner that can respond to an incident.....put on bigger wheels and it can roam around your entire property.

lol
