VERY NICE :-)

Rapid used to stock some switches that had Monochrome LCD displays in them
and were lit by LED. I always fancied having a play with them but I think
the switches were over ?25 each and the development kit was about ?200.

The keys on that keyboard appear to be full colour LCD with white LED
backlight. Now if something like that could be mass produced so that it
became really affordable it would be great for HA use.
