No Bluetooth using Rosetta emulation on Intel Macs

According to Tony Buser, connecting to the NXT via Bluetooth from NXT-G running on Intel Macs is a non-starter. It is very disappointing that LEGO hasn’t developed an Intel native NXT-G universal application (Apple is at fault here as well I’m sure). However, the bottom line is that Bluetooth is not available for apps running under the Rosetta emulator on OSX. The 1.1 update to NXT-G is due to ship on Nov. 23rd (from the LEGO shop). However, it looks like NXT# and NXT.pm will be viable options.
