LOGO-L> Table-Top Robot

Hi.

I am in the process of developing a table-top turtle robot based on
parallel port communications using MSWLOGO as a driving program. My
intent is to develop a way to spark interest in and help motivate a
transition from concrete to abstract thinking in elementary (and perhaps
middle) school children.

Before I try to reinvent the wheel, I would like to know if any such
robot exists commercially. The main functions would be to drag and lift
a pen across an 8 1/2 x 11 paper on a table top.
