If anyone's going to Google's I/O conference this week in San Francisco, make sure to check out the "Cloud Robotics" session on Wed. You might see something interesting from the DIY Drones dev team ;-)

The $550 is a bit steep. Obviously there's no shortage of Google Apps developers.
Maybe the team has created an app to let me drop eggs on the neighbors from my phone?
Can't wait to see what you've come up with!
"You will also be required to tow an adwords streamer after your drone... :-) " Nice... ;)
I envision an armada of thousands and thousands of Google Easystar drones that one can rent by the hour and all the flightpaths are fully indexed and searchable on the interwebs.
