Let the sun provide your grass-cutting

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008
Move over Roomba, Husqvarna has just released the first solar/electric hybrid automated lawn mower.

The grass is cut so finely that it can be left in place to compost in the yard. Sounds like the next best thing to getting rid of your grass altogether and xeriscaping with plants that require little or no manual watering and maintenance.

It’s not clear from the information when the Automower Solar Hybrid will be available and how much it will cost (but I think we’re talking thousands instead of hundreds this time - the kind of investment a neighborhood should make together instead of each individual going for his or her own).
