Hello,

after having asked a number of questions on these lists (many thanks for
your fast help) I've put some first snaphots of a Gumstix board
(StrongARM, 400MHz, with Bluetooth) inside an RCX LEGO controller enclosure on
my web site.
http://www.ubiqkom.de/HOWTO/LEGO_GUMSTIX_BASICX/lego_gumstix_basicx.html

Further sensors/actors will be interfaced via a basicX controller. That one
can be connected to the Gumstix board via one of its spare serial ports.
The "robot" formed that way will be controlled via a standard mobile phone
via Bluetooth. The communication counterpart for this purpose has already
been tested on the Gumstix.

Comments and enhancements welcome.

regards
