Quite liked the CrystalFontz display with the directional pad
and tick/cross for ok and cancel. You can pretty much do
everything with that. I can see up/down to select item in
the room and back/forward to select room or to select
the information feed to display. You could control a very
neat menu system with that. 

I personally think it's worth getting the H/W to do display
and input at the same time, who cares if the S/W does not
support it from day one - I certainly don't want to be swapping
out modules though. 

This could even tempt me away from my plan for PocketPC's
with IE everywhere (I'm a web freak you see).
