I thought there were a few people who had made their own controllers on the Arduino platform. Was sorta tempted myself at one point (although haven't done it yet).

Good luck and have fun, share with us whatever you end up doing!

Doug (pinhead) is a pro and I'm not half bad, though it's been a few months since my last arduino build.

There are a few solutions, this one comes to mind first:

There is a long thread on UKREEFS that details a full controller... can't seem to find it right now.

Hey Hazratty, how have you made out with this? I've been looking into this for trying to get my LED drivers to dim to 0 but have yet to make the jump into buying a board. I've looked at adafruit's pages and products and read most of ladyada's tutorial's. I might buy their starter pack and fiddle with it a bit.
I'm curious what board to be looking to get. Any progress you've made and would be willing to share would be awesome.
