Hi Chris -

Your best bet would be to check out the official FIRST LEGO League pages on the 2006 challenge here:

As far as the NXT goes, the official LEGO Mindstorms site has some basic info on the new NXT here:

Best of luck with the 2006 challenge!

I signed up and they sent me an email stating that they picked the 100 people. I wasn’t one of the hundred.

A longer version of the release appeared last week, here http://www.tmcnet.com/usubmit/2006/03/16/1465504.htm

Which includes Lego quotes:
“Since it was announced at Consumer Electronics Show in January,
consumer buzz and retailer demand for MINDSTORMS NXT has been
overwhelming,” said Joanna Gale, LEGO MINDSTORMS brand manager. “Because
we are thrilled that the community has expressed such early interest in
being part of the next generation of LEGO consumer robotics, our online
pre-sales program provides our most enthusiastic fans access to the
first units to roll off of the production line.”
