Wall mounted RF switch?

Hi all,



I am looking for a solution to add wall mounted switch panel to operate via
a home automation setup. At present I use Homeseer but looking to change to
a Linux based setup soon.



The output can be via serial at the receiver so I can tie this into the HA
system.



I would like something that is battery powered and some form of simple wall
fixing such as removable 3M sticky stuff. This way I can leave the existing
switches installed as the apartment is rented and mount these next to it.
Not as elegant but would allow me to have computer control of the lighting
in the apartment.



Anyone know of anything off the shelf or am I looking to have to roll my
own?



Dave.
