Again, not true. I count 12 GPIO lines available for use without
having to both with the cumbersome 51-pin connector.

Nope, you are absolutely wrong. Tmote Sky has built in USB, so none
of those silly programming boards are necessary as you can plug ANY

huh...I guess I should look at the tmotes. Didn't know they had USB...
But then I have to re-orient to MPS instead of ATMEGA, right?
I could never learn emacs because vi is hardwired.
But I skipped C++ and went straight to Java...

Well...given that I was wrong about the entry fee...
$800 doesn't seem right for the intro-mica2 kit but

Wait, I just figured out how to get the prices online

You'll be good to go with the Tmotes. Between the docs you can get
from them and RTFM at www.tinyos.net you'll be fine.

Sure you can start with TOSSIM, its cheap. But not terribly exciting
to watch. For 260 bucks you can get 2 Tmote Sky's

bucks you can get sensors on your Tmotes. That's a little more
