The latest firmware can be downloaded from the mindstorms site.
The case-based programming tool is quite weak. I would consider using NQC
or legOS which is much more powerful and easier to use. Very C like for NQC
and legOS uses GCC...
Don't forget pbForth (Forth for the RCX) and Lejos/TinyVM (Java for the
RCX). The RCX has an 8 bit Hitachi H8/3294 with 16KB of ROM and 32K of
RAM, so it has the potential to do far more than the included software
allows.
