Steve Hassenplug has put up a new robot on his website - the Green Monster! It uses one NXT, all three motors configured in a four wheel drive, GPS, a Compass Sensor, and those new Exo-Force large wheels. He used pbLua to program it. It was designed to compete in a RoboMagellan competion. Read about it here: http://www.teamhassenplug.org/robots/GreenMonster/ Very cool! Richard
