Hi, I have 2.5 installed on a iBook running OS9.2.2 with both a Belkin USB
serial convertor and a Xircom convertor. The latter can download the
firmware, but the former errors after only 4% download. I am using RCX 1.0
from the Team Challenge kit with an external power supply, so I don't think
it is the batteries. 2.0 worked fine with the Belkin adapter, and it is
apparently not possible to buy the Xircom ones anymore, according to our
local apple dealer. I am also getting crashes of Robolab and the Finder when
removing the usb convertors. Any ideas? I suspect it might be the Belkin
driver, which has not been updated to OS X yet either.

On a distantly related note, any idea when a OS X version might be available?

Mike
