[sdiy] LUMI keys

[Tom Bugs]

Equally, at first it could strike one as odd to promote this way, but I 
think it is a newish technique that some of us older school people don't 
quite get yet!
I would describe this Lumi as a product rather than a musical instrument 
- it is aimed broadly at general consumers rather than musicians.
I don't think the pledges so far would necessarily excite investors 
really - seems small scale in such worlds (not that I know much about them)
