The Samchillian Tip Tip Tip Cheeepeee
There's been some buzz on The Samchillian midi controller. I just took a look at these two videos (one, two) and it does look interesting. The first video is the current design floating around while the second video is the original design using what looks like a custom ergonomic qwerty keyboard; just like the one you use with a PC. The Samchillian website (title link) actually has a sofware version of The Samchillian so you can try it out yourself. You will also find instructions on how it works. The second video does a good job of showing you it's flexibility - you can chose various scales including some in depth microtonal scales that allow you to have 40 notes to the octave instead of the standard 12. Pretty interesting stuff.

I really dig this, the only thing I would do is add a set of +1 and -1 buttons. With two buttons for moving up and two for moving down chromatic/scalar (is that the right word?) runs would be as easy as twiddling your fingers.
