I purchased the Lego Mindstorms NXT for my twelve year old's birthday. Within fifteen minutes he had the first robot assembled, programmed and working. The programming interface is excellent. Thank you National Instruments for providing a Lego version of Labview to program the Robot. My son has already learned some basic computer programming structures and design patterns without even knowing. Loops, branching and object oriented programming. He even made a quick change to a program to get it working better than the kits suggested program. We have built all the robots that the kit teaches and a few other robots from a book we purchased. I highly recommend this toy/robot to anyone interested in learning about robots and computer programming. (I am a computer scientist and have wanted to teach my son about programming, but have not found the right platform until now. Thanks Lego)

This "toy" is very estimulating for children and adults that have an engineer mind and like to construct things, build artifacts. Im 24 years, im an electronics engineer and i bought this product to have fun programing robots like i never had the oportunity before, because i was busy in other things so finally i can start building things easy and make prototypes of a more complex and real product.

Here are the good things about it.
The Quick Start lets you get your first robot driving around in 20 min.
The Program is easy to use(you get version 1.1).
You can bild 4 robots and make hundreds of programs for them.
Here are the bad things about it.
It needs 6AA batterys and they need to be changed a lot.
The program crashes sometimes
The programs help is not usefull.

The bluetooth interface only works with a specific set of bluetooth stack so make sure you have the "correct" bluetooth adaptor if you plan on using BT to load the programs.

this thing is cool. The one bad thing about it is it only comes with instrutions for 1 robot(the trybot) wich is dumb! but as far as the scincers go it's cool.
