was looking at buying the xkeys 24 key board for my lathe. i found another one called the elgato stream deck. its only 15 keys but each key has a lcd screan and you can nest buttons into folders. it does macros and hot keys. does anyone see a reason it would not work? its designed for game streaming but looks promising.

very cool,

at $141 dollars you might want to wait for the centroid wireless mpg pendant , soon to be released... its target price is $195 and can do alot more than the cool Stream Deck unit.

Are these units available?
I need an MPG for my new allin1 system.
Does the $195 target price cover all costs to make it usable, or are there other fees e.g. software?
Do you have a part#?
I could not find it on the website?
Thanks

Is the new software update apply to allin1 or is it just for acorn?
I hear there is supposed to be a virtual control panel for the allin1. My touchscreen should work good with it.
I have MPU11.
