Martijn, Most of these are pretty clear. Of course, this discussion comes up every few months. But I have a couple questions...

To reduce in a multi > environment overwritten of programs, or a switch to lock the programs Do many people use the IR as a way to communicate between a PC and a moble robot? Personally, I don't think I've ever used the IR tower where I couldn't just use a wire, instead. How about everyone else? Would it be better to just plug the robot into your computer? > 6) Remote sensor Usage (IR or Bluetooth) >... > 10) Internal IP-like number (same as the imprinted) so you can direct address > that RCX ! (using IR or Bluetooth) I don't know much about Bluetooth. How would this help? Would it really be useful to have Bluetooth to connect to a sensor? I mean normally, I can just use a wire to connect. If I need more than that, I usually need another RCX, anyway... And, wouldn't it be hard to configure that? Of course, if you need to change sensors, you'll have to reconfigure it, right? > 11) Add on sensor like sound / light as seen on the web: > <http://www.crynwr.com/lego-robotics/> (see sensors) or > <http://www.mindsensors.com/> What do you mean, here? Do you want the ability to add new sensors (like we have now) or are you talking about something more? Steve PS. Nice meeting you in Billund. :)
