(...) I'm guessing that using the built in IR port is close to the signal needed but not quite there. It's a shame LEGO used such an alien signal for their towers. But I really do love having FULL NQC on my iPAQ! At our last show I was able to fully (...) (25 years ago, 12-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

I've been very interested in tightly coupling my Palm and RCX for over a year. Simply put, I want to have the Palm be a higher level 'brain' for my robotic creations, acutally being part of the robot. I use Forth for the majority of my Palm coding (...)

The newest version of the Robotic Mover works very well on the Visor (at least my Prism, I have yet to try my older Deluxe). The symptoms you describe sound like low batteries in the Visor.

Well, you should just 'cause their pretty nifty, but not just for this software.
