Physical buttons to make a mac do things i.e. change music etc

["noel" <noel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for possibly the worst title in a long long time but hoping this
makes sense.

Someone on here has physical, waterproof buttons in their bathroom that
they've hooked up to change tracks on Sonos iirc.  I want to do something
similar but more likely turning music on, selecting airport outputs etc but
on a mac.  So essentially I need a way of having hard buttons that trigger
things to happen on the mac.  I'm sure I could do it with X10 buttons but
not sure that a) it's the aesthetic i'm looking for, and also they're not
that quick to respond.

Any ideas on this one?

Thanks

Noel
