Thanks Mike. I'm not sure what micro I will use on the robot. I'm
leaning toward the HC11 (simply out of laziness), however I'm sure
others would be interested. If you would like to write up your
experience with the compass (accuracy, ease of use, problems and
interfacing) I'll make a page for it on the Mowbot site, with your code
for downloading.
