Out of curiosity, what problem are you trying to solve by adding a second controller to your robot? I have an EDU, a Vex, and a Gumstix in my collection of robot stuff, and I would love to slap one onto my team's robot, but I don't really know why I would. The only justification I could use is if you needed more than 18 I/O lines, or more than six interrupts, but I can't possibly imagine what you would be doing that would necessitate that.
