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 technology.

The Intelligent Touch Sensing Light Switches can be fitted in any existing electrical installation utilising both the existing wiring and back boxes.
