rwaliany will become famous soon enough
Well, Parallax did release a java based interpretor (javelin or something) but it's not for the RC we have.

But yeah, "well, have you ever thought about the resources available on a tiny pic micro-controller? " The Robot Controller from last year has a PBASIC 133MHZ processor which is, sadly enough, faster than one of my computers which run's Linux (Redhat 8) with X. The new RC for this year might have a processor that's even faster (PBASIC 2.5 vs 2.0).
