more versitile but more advanced. costs just the same as the sugested price for the NXT brick
i praticipate in the FIRST robotics, Lego, and Vex challenges, so i am qued into all of these things
How about Brick Labs?
http://www.brick-labs.com/
I’ll try and post a few other good references when I get home.
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.

I have a website dedicated entirely to Lego Mindstorms NXT at http://www.bnxt.com/blog.
Jeff,
It appears that the date for the User Panel winners to be announced is Feb 5… cnet.com had an article/interview with Soren Lund at

My homepage is available in English and German, presenting all my robots of the past 6 years and with a big link-list:
http://www.roboshow.de (German)
http://www.roboshow.de/index.php?spr=eng (English, alternatively you can click on the British flag)
http://NeoStormer.co.nr
My own personal site, there’s more robots to be added by the time the NXT hits the market i’ll have them on here.
http://wiki.clst.org/Alex/NXTSite
That is my site about the NXT. I edit it every so often to give correct and accurate information.
Enjoy.
Robotværkstedet starter med Mindstorms NXT til september!
My homepage is only available in Danish!
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-
http://www.bricksinmypocket.org/2006/02/03/bimpcast-20-interview-with-jake-mckee/
and http://www.legofan.org/
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!!
Marianne
I’ve got a web site that covers iRobot products Roomba, Scooba and Packbot and its competitors. Check it out: http://robotstocknews.blogspot.com
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
