RoboGames 2006 Wrapup

An anonymous reader writes "Engadget has a quick summary of much of the coverage surrounding the 2006 RoboGames. The games wrapped up today after much fire-fighting, speed-racing, and just plain robo-strutting around. The official results are still pending but it looks like the USA has a commanding lead on the medal count with Singapore and Japan filling the second and third slots."
