Exactly. Mine walks very nicely, and has not fallen over once. Otherwise
it's pretty boring however, because the MicroScout is extremly limited in
its capabilities. The best program I found is the one that makes it walk
when you shine a light at it. Power up the Microscout in a dark room, or
with it's light sensor covered. Then, when you turn on the lights, it will
just keep walking forever.
And the thing can only walk in a straight line. That's pretty boring, too.
