Nice work i am new to arduino i will build this when i get better at it but there is an Arduino that you can get with built on io shield but no usb i think that might be the go for this project.

I took a look at Sprout Board website.....Everything coming soon??? Nice ideas but I wish they would have at least more than one project available before putting a whole website up. Cant wait to see how and when they come out with more of those especially the home automation and the security projects.
