Now The idea is - Make a kit - sell it, the income shall go to a foundation
for creative people
around this email list..  And I guess all the schools that are outside
there.  Was money the problem
How much time was it about to take?

Maybe of topic:
One thing that is inportant to remember that we are moving from a fosil
economy to a economy that is based on smart logistics, meaning the more
robots and the better transport channels there will be the better
possibillties for robotic developments will exist. Also this will - change
the perspective on economy
what it is used for.  If ever used - since Solarpowered systems starts to
(Crude) - milk the cow harwrest the land - We can basicly sit on our "*" and
watch the wonder. And it is needed because we need to find
other ways on levels beoynd the defastating ways of living that eats the
planet. A sort of ecology i ment.

Since the end of story there - I wonder if not would be possible to • make a
lego robot out of a CASIOPEIJA PDA or something the only thing that is
needed is some H-bridges for motor driving?

I have an E-125 and it will take a little more than a simple H-Bridge.
Though I agree, it would be a fine platform for doing robotics. One idea
that we've been playing around with at Hangar 18 is swarm computing. • What
the basic idea is to use a PDA (we're talking Palm and PocketPC in • tandem)
using 802.11b for the 'mesh' and then use the USB port to drive one of
these PIC based USB converters. This would give you a reasonable 'Geek
Port' at that point. The only question we have at this point is the
various libraries for the PDA's and the PIC's. There is a cash flow
problem at the current time due to market conditions so we are not • making
a lot of progress on that front.

i don't think that it should be too expensive to alter the directions here
for use with a pocket pc or even a PSPC
(somepeople like me got stuck with a 2nd generation one)

anyways i just thought that even the link might be interesting.
