Has
anyone used the small embedded PC boards that are available ... usually
they are
pretty much a self contained low spec PC with onboard audio and video in a
PCB
about the area of a CD ROM drive? Any comments on which are good?
Which are
the best prices? Where to get them from?
I
was
going to try one for building an in-car MP3 player ... 80Gb IDE drives are
just
dirt cheap now!
One
would also be useable as a HA controller...

Just updated the news page of the website with
info on the following.
"Touch ' N ' Glo - State of the Art,
Programmable, Intelligent Electronic Switches. The Touch'N'Glo Sensing
Switches offer a complete range of Intelligent Switching with multiple
benefits. Comfort- Touch "on" / "off", with the hand or any other part of
the
anatomy from the head right down to the toes, or with a walking stick or
other
aid. Switches can now be placed in any location and any height to suit
individual needs. Ideal for the elderly, infirm and arthritic or when
carrying
that awkward parcel or your groceries. Easy to see with its distinctive red
glow indicating the position of the switch in darkness as well as a visual
deterrent to 'would be' burglars assuming a security device within the
room.
Home Automation - Control your home via the
internet using 'InControl' and the Touch'N'Glo communication
