By mounting the phone on the robot, and using vnc server software on the phone, you could drive the robot anywhere within cellphone coverage.

I saw presentation robots on the internet that can communicate via 3g networks... but they were $20 000.

The robot wouldn't require a camera. Just code interaction with the Iphone. it could use the Iphone's camera. Then you could just by an innexpensive Iphone just new enough to support 3g. I'd like to know how about docking the Iphone to recharge it though automatically... that'd be more complex...

Iphone or Android*... whichever your phone is.
