The silence from LEGO since Jake's departure has been deafening. Jake's blog
used to be my first stop in my daily web news crawl.

But since the keynote at BrickFest
(http://www.bricksonthebrain.com/brickfest2005/) there has been very little
solid news about the IR train system and the LEGO Train Factory program.
There are some great pictures of the sets posted over at ILTCO
(http://www.iltco.org).

But the official LEGO position on the future of the 9V system is not at all
clear.

LEGO - please bring us up to speed.

Cars.


Ergh, didn't they set up some kind of Ambassadors or GlobalAFOLs or
something
comprising people who are supposed to relay this kind of info back and
forth
between TLG and the great unwashed masses?

I think if anyone knows who any of those "in the know" people are, they
should
ask them to obtain clarification.
