Question

I was just curious to know how difficult the transition is from a BS2 to a Javelin is. I am fairly familiar with the basic stamp, but have no experience in Java at all, some C++ though. Thanks.

I used to use basic stamps (still do sometimes) but when the javelin came out

I switched. I didn't know java, but I did know C, not C++.

Not knowing (sun pc) java is an advantage I think if you start with the javelin.

If you know C you should be able to learn its syntax within 3 days, I did.

Many BS2 commands are present in the javelin, some timing differences

and different syntax (though the names are identical, like shiftIn and shiftOut).
