Mike,
Like Brian, I've been out of town. I typically post most often in technic,
but I read robotics and have been posting here since being invited to be a MUP

I've been very busy documenting the programming language for the NXT to help
the MDPer's get up to speed faster.
It takes a fair amount of time to do this, as they tools go through minor
revisions.
I was amazed and impressed at the amount of traffic the NXT and its

I'd guess that this is the calm before the storm. At some point we will no
longer be constrained by NDA and we can tell stories and talk in great detail.
Until then I'm back to being face down in power point.
