If you want RGB on the NBIV, you will also need to buy a PEX (power extender) board. They are very small, and can actually be affixed to the biscotte. The NBIV is a solid entry level board with great motion detection. The only drawback to the NBIV is that there are no aux features like blaster block and lockup, and the font sets are limited. I think you can only use 8 clashes and 8 swings per font.
The Prism is a great board, it can do RGB with no add ons. You get 6 fonts, great motion sensitivity, and aux features. Plus, you get color changing on the fly.
The CF9 is a 7.4 volt board, unless you hack it. IMHO a hacked CF9=Prism. So, unless you plan on using a 7.4 volt battery pack, I'd stay away. Particularly for your first build. There are a lot of features and configurations to set on the CF9. Prism would be the biggest mountain to climb for a first saber.
