I want to start coding in Python or Ruby. Since I own a Lego Midstorms kit I thought it would be nice to program against it. Are there any good translators / interpeters for the Mindstorms brick?

The nxt-python and ruby-nxt projects are remote control interfaces to the NXT. They both run on a PC and remotely control the NXT via Bluetooth or USB.
If you are looking for running alternative firmware on the NXT, there are several different alternatives.
Steve Hassenplug has a webpage with a comprehensive list of all of the known alternative firmware and remote control options.
