Re: Need programmable LCD touchpad

You may want to check out RAD I/O:

http://www.redradio.com/products/rad-io.html

This product is in early production. They have a PC-based video card
that sliced a VGA screen into eighths and sends each segment to the LCD
touchscreens (which are small enough to fit in a single-gang box) over
a cat5. The LCDs can display whatever you can display on the screen, so
you can make your interface however you want, even with HTML.

It's less expensive than putting a Leopard in each room, but perhaps
not as inexpensive as you'd like. Feature-wise, though, it's pretty
cool. For example, you can play video over them, show a Now Playing
cover art for music currently playing in that room, etc.
