I ordered a RIS 1.5 and recieved a 1.0. Should I be happy? I know the 1.0 has a jack for an external power supply. Also the firmware can be updated. So is there a downside to having been sent a 1.0 RIS? Thanks! Andy (23 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Very GOOD! Now contact LEGO consumer affairs and tell them you received a 1.0. Ask them for the FREE 1.0 to 1.5 upgrade kit. I've received 3 of these kits with no hassle what so ever. It comes with the manuals and software and all the parts (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

I ordered it from Hammacher Schlemmer. I believe they are sold out now, though, as others had their orders cancelled. -Andy (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Am wondering if anyone has completed a robot using both an RCX and a PalmPilot configuration? What I mean is having the PalmPilot acting as the primary processing unit and the RCX to control the motors and as sensor inputs? Thanks, VOng (23 years ago, 13-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I have exactly the same problem. How do you contact Consumer Affairs? I don't know the number or web address. Actually, I didn't even know they had such an animal. Matthias Jetleb VA3-MWJ (23 years ago, 14-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Well, you were lucky. I contacted Lego at the number you gave me and tried to see if they would send me an upgrade as well. They will, but for $25 US ($40 Cdn). Bummer. It's the second time this week. Matthias Jetleb VA3-MWJ (23 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
