Neat shortcut -- instead of building your own main-to-5v power converter, you found the best one made by someone else and just used it.

Edit: I just realized you're basically some code away from reinventing LIFX. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/limemouse/lifx-the-light...

Thanks!... Yeah, much more practical for a prototype.

Who says we are some code away? Stay tuned for the iPhone App blog post :)
