New Website!

So I finally got around to revamping the website. Next on my agenda is to get Alpha 3 out. However, I’ve been slacking. To finish it I have to finish the properties dialog and add support for finding multiple product ids.

An on going issue is how keyboard support should be done. Right now touchd claims and runs the entire device. However, it should really let the kernel run the keyboard as normal. This means that non-US layouts may not work because I’ve written it to work with mine and mine alone. What do you think?

Cheers.
