Great ideas. I also like the idea of the Color Glo keys being randomly
lit whether or not any notes are being played, or certain keys
flashing if the telephone rings... or have them light up at random,
but in rhythm with the player's pulse.

No idea... haven't disassembled the keyboards yet, just removed them.
