  You will need another Stamp connected to your PC to interpret data.· It may be possible to write a program for the PC that will receive the data directly without the Stamp interface, but that is way beyond you and I.

  I thought of using my second Stamp in order to do this. So I suppose it is workable. Sorry for asking so much questions but being in a foreing country (Greece specifically) I cannot order something that it will not work in the end. I've only seen the project that "Mr. Roboto" shows, in pdf format from the site. And it's just a simple control remotely of the bs2 (of course from another bs2 stamp).

  · I recommend the Surelink modules from Parallax. With a slower rf data rate enabled, you can transmit and receive at up to 1000 feet,instead of 250 feet,·for around the same price. Check out the BOE_DAR page on Parallax. If buying the Surelink transceivers, I recommend buying·at least·one Quicklink module so you can program the surelink modules for standalone mode. With a quicklink\surelink module on your pc side, and a surelink module on your boebot, and a little VB magic there is no reason that this can't be done.
