i wonder if this is going to open the gates to a/c integration for some of those talented types

Probably not, but if that board had the guts to control 8 servos too, that would do the trick.

The thing I like about what phidgets brought to the scene was the ability to create control and interaction for someone who knew programming but was not familiar with the hardware required.

I'm still trying to figure out how to make a phidget circular touch control the volume and navigation zoom. But, I don't know any programming so I feel like a monkey trying to have intercourse with a football (I didn't feel like typing the swear words).
