This "Droid Brick" looks like a combo brick and motor...

I cant wait for this to come out..

But everywhere you can see enough of the front of the brick, it has
something attached with an axle. Unless it's an integrated high-res
angle sensor, I'd say it would have to be a motor.
(great - yet more specialized-use motors.)

Speaking of new parts, are those 8845-style wheels or something new?
