Hi all,

One thing that was noticibly absent from the press releases was the
programming language(s) that would be used for NXT robots. Since NXT
seems to be an addition to the Mindstorms family (and not a
replacement for the RCX) I would assume that Lego will be supporting
REAL programming languages like Java/J2ME and C/C++.

Do anyone have any ideas on the programming languages that may be used?

Thanks,

Bruce

Besides trying to hack the USB port to make it a host (which seems more unlikely the more I read), and besides trying to use Bluetooth to talk to my Gameboy Advance (and vice-versa), I'd also like to tackle something like the RCX.NET project.
