These devices are all wickedly overpriced.

Use an old android phone or tablet with software like TouchPortal or Matric. Way more economic and I bet everyone has one collecting dust.

The whole point of this and devices like this are to give physical controls to common tasks so you can quickly trigger them, even without looking. Using old devices is great for some things, but they don't compare to having physical controls.

It's like all those new cars that just have a giant tablet instead of buttons and knobs. No one likes those because they're harder to use while doing something else.
