I just hope that these Spybots can interface with Mindstorms. I wold
imagine, since the Spybot tower looks to be IR, that the Spybot 'bots can
also take IR commands from the RCX
The Scout and the Microscout (VLL thru the Scout) can be controlled by the
RCX. Hopefully it's the same technology.

| It looks like it's more along the lines of the micro-scout, but it sounds a bit more capable. The $60 price can include more smarts, because there aren't that many lego parts with each, only about 200. I'll bet AFOL's can find a lot more to do with (...)
