Yes, it's working. We don't know if we're going to use them, but I plan to create a plugin anyway. On the Uy/Ceibal side, I really want to know which Arduino they are > using, and the exact sensors too.

We bought a kit from sparkfun.com last year which I think is no longer available (dev-09284) Anyway, these are the items icluded: Arduino Duemilanove (ATmega328) Light sensor SEN-09088 <http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9088> Buzzer COM-07950 <http://www.sparkfun.com/products/7950> Trim pot COM-9288 <http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9288> Temperature sensor SEN-00250 <http://www.sparkfun.com/products/250> Tricolor LED COM-09264 <http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9264> Button COM-09190 <http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9190> Jumper wires PRT-08431 <http://www.sparkfun.com/products/8431> We also bought a motor shield for driving more motors: http://www.ladyada.net/make/mshield/ Turtle Art Arduino, at least when I last ran it, requires Firmata software > in the Arduino Yes, we're using Firmata in the Arduino.

I think there's a function in nxt-python that lets you upload a program to the nxt brick. I'll check it out later. Right now I'm working on a plugin for the new plugins model for TA.
