Hi Paul,

You can get a 1.5 or 2.0 upgrade package for a small fee from Lego
Shop@Home.  Give them a ring at 1-800-267-LEGO.

However, it's not really worth the money unless you have small kids-the 1.5
and 2.0 upgrade kit is mostly software plus a few extra parts IIRC.  The RCX
itself hasn't changed and the 1.0 RCX can use all of the new firmware and
development tools for adults downloaded from the Internet (ie, the 2.0 SDK)
What you get with the upgrade package is really more of the Lego software
for kids.

Thanks Callum. What we are doing is trying to get to 2.0 to use some features in NQC. Am I making this too complicated? Can we just download the 2.0 firmware and skip the 1.5 upgrade?
