I'd like to also put in a plug for the LEGO's low-cost WeDo robotics product. While there is some support for it in Scratch, to my knowledge there isn't no grassroots hacking on the USB interface for it. I think it would be very cool to have Turtleblocks support the WeDo sensors and motor (which can be purchased as individual components from LEGO Education).
I will have an NXT 2.0 kit soon so I am eagerly following these developments.
