New WACI PAD

[acheslow]

Saw this on Engadget this morning and thought it looked cool:

WACI PAD is a very special and unique button panel. Available in 6 or 12 button configurations, WACI-PADs fit in standard sized single or double gang electrical boxes and provides a comfortable, tactile and graphical user experience. The buttons use tiny display technology to provide multiple levels of interaction using accompanying software. Each button has the ability to morph into other buttons based on button presses or events taking place in the system. WACI PAD is the most innovative and functional control interface in the industry today.

It's a commercialization of a DoD technology: the VAB (Variable Action Button) panel.

Pretty cool. I wonder how much it costs. I'll bet it's expensive.
