Take a look at Ars Tech for the review. I've always wanted a set of these to play with and this new set sounds awesome.

"The NXT brick can communicate with three other Bluetooth devices at any one time. This means that if you had four Mindstorms kits, you could create a mega-robot with four brains, twelve motors, and sixteen sensors — all of it coordinated through Bluetooth. The setup also works with cell phone and PDA Bluetooth systems, meaning that you can use your phone as a remote control or an output device."

Sweet! Maybe I can get a kit and build one of these:

"DESTROY ROBINSON FAMILY, DESTROY!"

the sad part is, some perl g33k is probably writing scripts to do silly things with these.

cool idea though :)
