Wow, that really looks very cool and as someone already said, kudos to the
few that followed that NDA to the line, that's a BIG secret to keep for a
mindstorms fan. Now we know who to blame for the things we don't like ;D .
Anyway, I don't want to start taking those things appart before they are
already out but since I've seen that there are still only 3 outputs, there
are some questions I have to ask...

. Digital wire interface allows for third-party developments
Does having 6-wire digital cables means a whole new realm of possible custom
sensors and output applications? And, how is bluetooth compared to IR on
speed and reliability? Finally, can you use your Bluetooth headphones as a
baby monitor for your new NXT?

. Opportunities for physical programming of robots and interaction with
robots during programming
That idea probably came from the Gameboy Advanced driven robots.

I wonder when will they be available in Israel...
Jonathan
