  RCX and PalmIII
 
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 (25 years ago, 13-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Hammacher/Future Shop Blowout of RIS
 
(...) Well, it appears you were lucky. I tried calling the 1-800 number you told me about and asked for Gabriel but wound up talking to someone else.

My order from Hammacher-Schlemmer just came in; the total came to US$124.90 with shipping, and best of all, it's a RIS 1.0! Woo hoo! --k (PS: They even threw in some off-brand batteries, but I am definitely going to make use of the long-awaited (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: I ordered a 1.5 and was sent a 1.0 Good or Bad?
 
(...) 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 (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

  I ordered a 1.5 and was sent a 1.0 Good or Bad?
 
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 (25 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Light sensor
 
(...) I really doubt it. If the current Light Sensor is discontinued then they must have a smaller better one coming out with 2.x. Dean -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) Lego Workshop: (URL) Lego Club: (URL) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: How many RCX's
 
(...) Along the same lines (since I've just bought some RIS's myself)... has anyone programmed one RCX to "turn on" (by hitting the run button) another RCX at a certain step in their program. - Jeff (25 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
