Re: Looking for replacement CD-Rom for Droid Developer Kit (9748)

Oops.. absolutely correct - do I feel like an idiot? :)

As Doug says, the brick can only be programmed in a limited sense  
using VLL. The way we do it is via a Spybotics robot, programmed  
using NQC and connected to the Microscout via a light-tube.

Not really the answer (unless you have a Spybotics) - sincere  
apologies for leading you up the garden path. And thanks to Doug for  
correcting me.

Cheers
Tom
