Have you done anything with the arduino boards? They look pretty interesting.

@kyb - not yet, but I may get one or two to play with very soon. A while ago I made a small LED array driven by a phidgets board. But that requires a permanent connection to a PC and I couldn’t get it to drive the lights quick enough to create the full effect I was after.
