I’m drooling! I must have it! I'm looking to purchase in the next 4 to 6 weeks. Tell us you will have it in by then.

Sorry if I'm spoilling your debut, but it's so COOL I had to share. That has "I gotta have it" writin all over it!

Brad here's the post where rick announced them http://www.network54.com/Forum/228309/message/1211319231/The+new+HOS+Orbot+machine+is+here%21 I know he later posted about some mods maybe that's what your talking about. But you're right it is one sweet looking machine good luck with your purchase.

Yep, I knew he has been carring the Orbot for a while and was looking forward to getting one, but these are the pictures of the modified version, and I like the look of it better. I'd love to take that out on demos. I think it would help impress the cumtomers and help make the sale. Thanks!

The new models are ready to order now. NOW!!!

Yep that's right. The absolute coolest OP machine ever built is now available.

The new Orbot is a work of art. HOS has knocked the ball clear out of the park

There is a 3-4 week lead time on orders. So order now and get one heading to your door.

How can a piece of equipment look so cool? It's just not supposed to be that way.

Will I look as cool as the guy in the picture if I use an orbot, too?

You did it again. Making me want to buy something that I already bought.

Man you're good.

Mine is still being assembled. Can't wait.

On a serious note, it looks like they changed the spray jet set up on the Orbot. Any reason for the change?

Just ordered one, can't wait to use it.

We have a busy weekend, all three of our Cimex's are going out to separate jobs and the guys said we need a fourth.

I showed them the pictures posted here and ICS and they decided we needed the Orbot instead.

We will be anxiously waiting for it.
Thanks Rick!

I had read somewhere that it was based upon end user feedback as the original spray jets were out in front of the machine and were being bumped into walls, desks, etc.

The modification took care of that- as i understand it.--Never used one so I cannot tell you from personal experience.



Make you own luck,

Thanks Del. Makes sense.

I like how you can clean right up to the wall.

Only wish the Cimex was designed to do the same thing. I wonder why the pad drivers couldn't be a little more outside.

Maybe someone will invent the Ci-Bot and make those changes.

Then again, who walks 2 inches away from the wall.

I'm talking about commercial carpet here. Not to many cats and dogs go to work.

I can't say none, because I have seen some dogs at work before.

Toddlers, infants, and the people who chase them around walk or crawl close to the wall, that and people trying to race by everyone with a large coffee in their hands that tend to spill
