Not everyone thinks Neato is better. I tried both, and the Neato got stuck every time in certain areas of my home so that it was totally unusable. The Roomba, although it has issues in other areas of the house, at least works pretty well. Also, despite the Roomba's "chaotic" approach to navigating, it works. The Wirecutter, for example, thinks it's a better navigation system, and if you look at a light painting done with a Roomba you can see it covers an area pretty well: http://lightpaintingphotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IBROOMBA3.jpg http://lightpaintingphotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/...
Finally, I have an older model, but the new Roomba 980 includes a camera so they are working on new navigation tech, albeit slowly and at crazy high prices.
