Re: Vex Vs. Edubot Vs. RCX Vs. NXT

Thanks guys, you really helped me make up my mind.

I will go with the VEX for a couple of reasons:
-cheaper (kit and body parts) and easier to expand with scrap stuff (scrap computer cases etc.)
-More expandability and better standard compliance.

I already know I will only get the VEX kit if i manage to get the prototype programming kit. (so i can program in real C)

so now I have two questions:
-is there any other way to get the prototype programming kit not from the vexlabs? because the phone method is a bit tricky for me... (I live in israel).

-Where can I get more sensors for the Kit? what kind of sensors do i need?
for starters I would like a ultrasonic range sensor and a rotation sensor with a good resoultion (accurate at 6 degrees).

Thanks alot guys!
-Leav
