"the phone actually sends out commands over WiFi, which are passed through a WiFi-Bluetooth tunneling app on laptop before hitting the bots."

Pff... So you need a laptop in between? Sounds lame to me.]]>Feb 8th 2010 12:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/I know!
I can remotely control cars using my '95 Nokia. I simply issue voice commands after dialling a special number (a taxi firm) and the car is driven to me house. Obviously as my Nokia does not have car control hardware I have to route the commands through a human being.

I can do similar things with pizzas and fire engines. ]]>Feb 9th 2010 5:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/Feb 8th 2010 12:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/Anyone can download the apps to do that for free from the Android market. ]]>Feb 8th 2010 12:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/Do you like your Hero?
T-Mobile UK do them for free with unlimited data for £25 a month, and so do 3. I'm considering getting one to replace my original iPhone. I was just wondering whether you would recommend it really.]]>Feb 8th 2010 5:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/
The Hero is an exceptional phone, much better than the iPhone 3GS I gave up for it, I currently use an HTC HD2 too because unfortunately and incredibly it lacks a (working) voice dialing app which is necessary to me.
Anyway, , apart for this gaping hole which has been fixed in the latest versions of Android, the Hero is the best smartphone I have ever tried, and I tried nearly all of them.]]>Feb 9th 2010 6:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/Feb 8th 2010 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/Feb 8th 2010 2:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/Feb 8th 2010 2:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/Feb 8th 2010 4:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/htc-hero-controlled-mindstorms-bot-hints-at-android-uprising/
