I don't do any programming/coding/whatever at all, but I think this
sounds like a great idea! Something very similar is used with the
x0xb0x (diy tb-303), and there's at least more than one diy firmware
out there for it, and it's very easy to change or even reset to the
original firmware. It adds or takes away features, changes the
functions of certain buttons, etc, and it's all open source.

I built a x0xb0x, and I love it. The Poly800 is a different animal,
but I think the same concept would really bring the thing to life. I
wish I could help you guys out, but that stuff is waaay over my head. =(
