Smarthome (www.smarthome.com) is the manufacturer of the KeypadLinc I
mentioned, but you can get them from other vendors. I got mine from
www.homeautomationnet.com (on this page you can see some other ones
too:

Are you familiar with X-10 lighting control? In case you're not, the
transmitter is not the only thing you'll need. Each "light area" will
have to have a receiver of some sort (a plug-in lamp module,
replacement switch, or the like). Also, the same thing can be
accomplished with technologies other than X-10, each with its own set
of pros and cons. Let us know if you need assistance.
