It definitely needs to be portable!

please no PDF, it is portable but a pain to read on a screen and I've always
thought that it was easier to read api documentation on your computer screen

one)
Also if you could have a explaination on how to install the related tools
for non linux machine it would be nice.
BTW if there is something on legos in the mindstorm O'reilly book (which I
really hope) this would be a very definite reason for a cd rom to be needed,
legos itself is small but downloading all the development environment on a
28800 modem in a country where you pay every minutes of every local
communication thanks to the national telecom company monopoly is NOT a nice
experience (even assuming the download works the first time)
