Not so fast!  RIS is still a great system, and that won't change with NXT
out there.  As for support, I know that botball.org is heavily invested in
RIS parts for the forseeable future, along with 3rd party stuff like the
brain from Charmed Labs.  I can't see FLL forcing everyone to NXT right away
either, as it would drive participants away.  I think they've said they will
allow both systems to be used; I can see a bit of David/Goliath storyline --
well-funded school with NXT systems loses to scrappy, underfunded RIS
team...  maybe FLL can be convinced to loosen their restrictions on 3rd
party programming tools for RIS cometitors, as a way of somewhat leveling
the playing field.

TLG seems like a smart company. It's never a good idea to PO dedicated,
long-standing customers.  Therefore I suspect they will continue to support
the existing market for some time.  YMMV - dan
