Ordering Education and Education Value Packs
Last updated on April 4, 2006.You can now order Lego Mindstorms Education NXT from http://www.legoeducation.com/store/SearchResult.aspx?pl=10&by=6. For the first time, you can see pictures of the various parts. This is what the Education Base Set looks like:
The Lego Mindstorms Education NXT software licenses are pretty expensive relative to the NXT set itself. I guess that reflects the level of investment that went into developing good software.
There are some discounts available on these classroom licenses if you buy Education value packs. These packs contain 4, 8 or 12 sets in a single shipment, and include the classroom software licenses required. In the case of the 4-set, your price per NXT Education Base Set + software is $300. In the case of the 12-set, the price "drops" to $261,67 (x12) dollar.

Thanks for noticing the error in the copy of the pages for the NXT Value Packs. We're working to update that right away.

Thanks!
Yes, I was pleasantly surprised by Lisbeth White's comment. I've read on Jim's blog that he is read too.
On the content, I hope to raise the bar once I actually get my hands on the NXT, normally around mid-July.
Filip,
You were asking about the issue of 2 touch sensors being included in the Education NXT kit... not sure if this can be held as truth, but if you look at the image of that grey container you'll notice 2 touch sensors tucked in there.
