Turtles are essentially robots, and were added in the 1.3 update. They run an OS (like the consoles) named TurtleOS. They have the ability to place, break and detect blocks, move around and drop items in their inventory. The programs they run are stored on floppy disks.
Turtles are submersible and lavaproof. As such, they are extremely useful for mining near bedrock, where heavy lava flows can prevent access to diamonds and other rare finds.
If you would like to know more about how to program them, have a look at the Turtle API.

Floppy Disks
Turtles do not have a built-in floppy drive. As such they need a floppy drive placed next to them to access disks.
Power source
Turtles have been equipped with a state of the art AWESOME FANTASTIC AMAZING quantum ionizing engine. This means that, once given fuel (the redstone used to craft them), they do not need to be re-charged, nor do any fuel cells need to be replaced, likewise they don't need to have external power directed to them either.
Mining
Turtles crafted with a diamond pickaxe can break blocks. Mining turtle's pickaxes have no durability, and so can be used indefinitely without the need for any additional materials. When a mining turtle breaks a block, the mined block will be placed directly into it's inventory.
