George:

You are correct ... CAN is basically RS-485 with a lot of great, additional features implemented in hardware.

There have been a few forum discussions on CAN over the past year.  Unfortunately, I haven't had much luck finding them with the forum's search tool.

I do not have experience using the CAN interface with the SX, but don't expect any problems.  It works via standard serial communications.  The PBasic code on the product page (http://www.parallax.com/dl/src/prod/CANexSrc.zip) should work fine.

Let me know if I can help in any way.

P.S. The product should be off backorder very soon.
