Nick,

Sorry for being late, but before you spend your money it might be useful
to have a look at the list of available programming environments for the
NXT listed at

http://mynxt.matthiaspaulscholz.eu/tools/index.html

It should be pretty complete and I tried most of them with a real task
for a real robot.

Of particular interest for people that want to program the NXT with Java
might be ICommand, derived from leJOS and hosted on lejos.org.

Regards,
   Matthias

Hi,

Thinking of getting the NXT kit, just wanted to know what programming
languages / sdks are out there. I looked on the Lejos site, and it seems
like they were thinking about porting for NXT but it seems to have gone
quiet recently. Ideally I'd like to be able to develop in Java...

I have not looked at Lejos yet, (shame on me), but Brian Bagnall seems
particularly active with this.

There are new releases about once a month, with October's release just
announced today in the news://lugnet.robotics.nxt newsgroup:
http://news.lugnet.com/robotics/nxt/?n=206

There is also a book due out in January:
http://www.amazon.com/Maximum-Lego-NXT-Building-Brains/dp/0973864915


I have also seen reports of someone developing a Java library for a PC
to communication with a NXT.


Hope that helps,
Tony
