+ 4 motor connections. FINALLY! A dream come true! What is missing is a 5 sensors connection.
+ It runs faster start up on the (Linux), but as a Linux user, I am reassured, I can because it myself what it flash, a high modding on it!
+ Programming on the robot itself is enough for a couple of short scripts that I do not have any sprint to my laptop times, but that is not bedienlich.
+ It now looks really like a sensible robot, and not like a Lego ulcer.

I have often read that, people get excited about a few things, but why? The final product is (almost) perfect, and even in the affordable range, assuming that can teach children something to contact algorithms are mutually exclusive. In my view, should kids my age no phone but a sensible laptop (yes, a Macbook goes well, me does not matter) and have a NXT (and any Nokia or effective smartphone that just fine).
With a cell phone you only learn how to optimally photographed a profile picture so that's nice to see the cut, how loosely pressed half a million buttons per minute on a cell phone, and how to exposes on the Internet. With a NXT you can learn what you can use: PROGRAMMING (only on GUI, but that's enough first, still better than a fucking cell phone).
