Some figures posted here a couple of weeks before the 2006 Kickoff indicated 1126 teams. So as of this morning we are about 130 teams shy of last year's total -- but there's still a little over one month until registration closes.
Many teams get their funding for FRC close to the deadline, so the team count will probably rise quickly toward the end of November.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
