Lego mindstorm and .NET :)

Just thought this was pretty sweet and sounds like a lot of fun. I was thinking of getting one of these to mess around with. Lego mindstorm, which is a little robot type thing that lego sells now has a SDK and may be programmed through .NET

Has anyone here messed around with this?

Yea, I did this a while back using Java. Lots of fun to play with.

I did it back in high school... it was pretty fun. I think we used c++ to program them.

If anyone still has the Lego set for it, you should sell it to me.
