I'm beging to think that "what I though I saw"
was actually a memory mishmash of the Ambient device and one of the many
'internet enabled' projects that I've seen

Looks like for the moment you need to roll your own using something like a
Beck IPC@Chip or similar and a cheap lava lamp or set of dials :-S

or maybe a Hacked router running Linux?

Indeed. I was really hoping the dashboard thing could have been
provided
with arbitrary data to display :-(  Would be a pretty cool way to
display house info...
