Interesting, has there been any data on the electrical characteristics of the new batteries? (I admit I haven't looked, been too busy trying to get my programmers to comment their Subversion entries!)

I'm a FIRST relic of sorts, I remember when we used PBASIC and we got CH Flightsticks in the KoP. In my day we didn't have motorized carts, we pushed our robots uphill, both ways! (Houston 2003!)
