Phil,

You should be able to place an order once production has started.

Those who pledged here are just the early birds.

I wanted to buy one but today's date is 5/23/12. It looks like I'm past the cut off date.

Someone write me back if I can still purchase one of these. philipeudy@gmail.com

2012-05-18T04:05:20.818-05:00

I have a programming problem. I use NXT-G and I have two NXT's
(since yesterday). I want to make a program so I can control a robot
with my other NXT. How do I do this? I've looked at the bluetooth block
but I have no clue how it works. Can you tell a bit about the bluetooth
block and how I can use it to control my robot by bluetooth by another
robot. Thanks already, Alex

Would be nice to have a movie what this new bonus model is actually doing.

Just from the image and the short description that might be hard to figure out for onviewers.

Wow I didn't expect my robot to featured on the NXT Step :D BTW I'm the guy who sent the link about NXT-G being #20 on the TIOBE Index.

Where can I find out more about that skate robot?

You have an awesome amount of Lego Mindstorms NXT robots information here. I was looking for the release date on the NXT 3.0, but I guess Lego has not announced it yet. I have a website about Lego Mindstorms as well, if you want to check it out:
NXT Robots

Is it alright if I like to your website?

2012-04-07T14:02:15.253-05:00

Mmm, LEGO Ed sells "LEGO MINDSTORMS Education NXT Software 2.1", they don't have NXT-G (searching gives no results).

I may be wrong, but a large group of customers may not know the name. Not really a problem for the statistics but possibly confusing to new customers.

Lots of fun! This is great because it only takes one set to build!

I'm captain for an FTC team, but because I knew my RobotC, I never had to use this. However , I have helped many teams who had no clue how to get to the debugger and setup the FTC remote for field inspection and stuff and general testing, and I am quite sure this will be a huge help. If this could be implemented in the next driver suite, as say, part of the motors and sensors setup once someone has selected Tetrix and NXT as a platform, then I think this would improve the user experience quite a lot.

Yeah, It's April 2012, and I thought that this was an April Fool's joke.
Woops, 2 years later. I just hope they come up with the new MXT this year, because otherwise the hardware and the software will get outdated and not fun to use.
