That is good news. I only corresponded with Larry, so I developed the wrong impression.

I'll see what I can do about making a run of MOTM compatible modules.
Most people interested, expressed a desire to add more features with
the larger panel. A "super" joystick for instance with variable range, scale
and offset per axis. This is possible, but not for $90.

Something to think about...
