ughhhhh there are no RF-compatible 500 series Roomba motherboards on ebay
but there is a 550 going for $50 that the seller claims to work but needs a new battery
(then why don't they put a new battery in it and sell it for more money)
There's also a lot of 5 untested 500-series bots for $125 including shipping
What do
(note, buying a newer roomba that goes on the wifi is right off the table for obvious reasons)
