It may be possible to overload the sensor ports. Can you tell us what types
these sensors are, and what they are used for?

I did it once, not with LegOS though. See
<http://news.lugnet.com/robotics/?n=5784> for details.
Sadly, that can-retrieval project is left unfinished. I did finish building
a robot for the task, but have never come around writing the necessary
software to control it. (Building with Lego is much more fun than writing
software.) Later the robot was dismantled, because I needed its parts for
something else.
