+ * This device is a anodised aluminium knob which connects over USB. It can measure
* clockwise and anticlockwise rotation. The dial also acts as a pushbutton with
* a spring for automatic release. The base contains a pair of LEDs which illuminate
* the translucent base. It rotates without limit and reports its relative rotation
* speeds of up to 7 clicks either clockwise or anticlockwise between pollings from
* the host. If it counts more than 7 clicks before it is polled, it will wrap back
* to zero and start counting again. This was at quite high speed, however, almost

+ * certainly faster than the human hand could turn it. Griffin say that it loses a
+ * pulse or two on a direction change; the granularity is so fine that I never
+ * noticed this in practice.
*
* The device's microcontroller can be programmed to set the LED to either a constant
* intensity, or to a rhythmic pulsing. Several patterns and speeds are available.
*
* Griffin were very happy to provide documentation and free hardware for development.
