There are always a 100 ways to write code for a given problem, but here's one example that I think will do the same job.

Code:

  //                            RGB       RGB       RGB       RGB
  byte bit_patterns [] = {B00000000,B00000010,B00000100,B00000001};


void loop()
{
if(mySerial.available() > 0)
{
char val = mySerial.read();   
char b = bit_patterns[val - '0']; // note, no bounds checking, we could get a 'Z'

Serial.print("recieved:");
Serial.println(val); //Print what Arduino 1 is sending

digitalWrite(blueLed, b & 1);
b >>= 1;
digitalWrite(greenLed, b & 1);
b >>= 1;
digitalWrite(redLed, b & 1);
}
}
}

I guess I should clarify that I am using the XBee Series 2 radios

Oh, and thank you Mr. Nomad.  I'd actually like to come visit in Australia and stay a few... years

You're most welcome, the country is about the same size as the 'States but with the population of NY so we've got plenty of room .
