    I recommend that you check the mail-list at http://www.lugnet.com/robotics. There you’ll find the MUP’s and lots of AFOLs that built amazing things with the former LEGO Robotics kit and that are all willing to get their (and my) hands on the new NXT

    There’s not a lot of new info out there on NXT, but my blog will attempt to keep up with what does exist. I also plan to include links for beginners for all things Mindstorm that can point them to tutorials and other information.

    That is my site about the NXT. I edit it every so often to give correct and accurate information.

    Enjoy.

    I just read a story at pasta&vinegar: Someone got arrested in a German train because they thought his Mindstorm was a bomb. Weird :-)

    How about BimP?

    http://www.bricksinmypocket.org

    Especially the recent podcast interview with Jake Mckee that covers how they managed to build support for users internally, implement the MUP, and land the WIRED cover article-

    can anyone help us use the mindstorms robotics invention system 2.0 to make a clam shell open and close? Should we try pullies? IF so how?

    Thank you very, very much!!

    jeff,
    I think you should do an entry on all the Mindstorms Education NXT stuff- the rechargablr batterie and conversion cable, mostly. Having extras of everything (all the sensors. the nxt brick) available is also really cool, as well as the BlueToth Dongle. You could use the individual sensor descriptions, too. It’s all at http://www.legoeducation.com/store/SearchResult.aspx?pl=10&by=6

    Hi dp -

    Thanks for the input. I’ll likely do something on the LEGO Education NXT items in the next week or so.

    Thanks -

    - Jeff
