To add to what Rainer said, I also have the RIS 1.0, but I got the RIS 1.0
to RIS 1.5 upgrade kit for free while back from Lego. The upgrade kit
comes with the extra blue connector pieces. Talk to lego and see if you can
get the upgrade kit. If you do not qualifiy for the free upgrade (check
your RIS box to see if you are entitled for a free upgrade, my wasnt but I
still got it for free), I think it costs $25, but I think you can pick one
of these up at ebay for $5-$10.
