It’s good that people are interested!
With the RCX couldn’t you just have a robot broadcast a message to anything
that could see the IR signal and was waiting for specific messages to arrive?
Can a similar thing be done with BT?
Would we be better off waiting until BrickFest and playing around with the
programming then, or try to do some of it ahead of time? Like you said, almost
no one owns 4+ NXTs (I just own one), and this is also why I thought BrickFest
was a perfect place to try it.

Jordan,
I think swarming would be very fun to explore, but, for me, there isn’t enough
time before BF.
Here’s something you could play around with before BF:

Start by getting your robot to follow the line on the test pad.
To answer your question, the NXT can NOT broadcast a message. It only sends to
a specific target.
Hopefully, there will be other bluetooth stuff we (you) can play with at BF.
