[Robotgroup] Idea for Eggbot...?

So, after the Dorkbot show, it occurred to me that Rick's eggbot was
fascinating to watch, but really didn't offer much of a "take away"...
Plus erasing the egg over and over was time consuming.

So, how about we *give* the completed egg to the person when their
design is done drawing? If we replace the water-based marker with a
Sharpie, and then order these:

we could give each person a permanently marked robo-egg! The above link
is to a site that sells plastic easter eggs, 2000 eggs for $125.00
(thats about 6 cents an egg).

We could give a plastic "easter egg" to each person that requests a design.

If we put a robot group logo on the egg, or maybe a robot group "fortune
cookie" type message.. or maybe a robot group sticker inside each egg,
it would make a for a compelling give-away to help promote the group... :)

What do you folks think?
