Erik,

That was my  hope. There are programmable robots used in at least one 
of our local schools. They use a Mindstorms product. My hope was that 
there was someway to interface it with RunRev and program in 
Transcript with a TG supplement al la the RunRev education page.

Currently the available programming languages for this product are: 
RCX , Java, C, C++, and Forth. I was hoping someone had considered 
and x-Talk interface.
