That's good. I'm glad to hear that I can still use my favorite IDE.

Will the Talons really have support for CAN next year?

The current hardware doesn't support it AFAIK so will they release a new version? We were considering buying Talons to replace our Jaguars, but since I knew CAN would be easier to implement on the robotRIO end next year, I wanted to try it. I was reluctant to buy Talons because they don't currently have CAN support, but if they will next year then its a win-win for me (smaller size + more reliability + fancy sensor feedback). Do you know if the Talons will support all the potentiometer and encoder feedback the Jaguar does?

Your post was not common knowledge (at least for me) and you made me even more excited about next year.
