I gave a talk on Sun SPOT today (May 3rd, 2008). We had ten students. Most are members of the IEECS. It's probably due to the rain, and the fact that it is nearing final exams. The IEECS brought their set of Sun SPOTs. After the talk, we tried getting three or more Sun SPOTS to play with the bouncing ball. It seems 3 are OK. Adding the fourth one didn't seem to work.
Some of the youtube videos I played during the talk were very interesting. The links to the videos are here:
Mike's Flying Bike demonstrate how Mike use Sun SPOTS and a bicycle to fly around in google flight simulation.
SPOTkin Project shows Sun SPOT gives a Halloween pumpkin personality.
Sun SPOT telerobotics shows the use of Sun SPOT to control a robot arm.
Sun SPOT and LEGO Mindstorms NXT: A Sun SPOT controller for a toy car.
Sun SPOT game controller for first person shooter: In this video, they demonstrate the use of two Sun SPOTs: one to control the gun, and the second to control the player's movement.
