ver 3.0 will have 1 toggle to 2 keystrokes, and winXP driver. (and probably 160 input switch)

Since it's cheap (to built) and freeware (the software) please don't compare it to full functionality of Hagstorm KE72 etc... :)

Looks great! Let me know when it will function with XP. How about driving other lamps like speedbrake armed, flaps, etc:? Thanks,
Rob
