Eight keys, a rotary encoder, and a tiny OLED. The remote for everything else.

Eight Choc switches plus an encoder for volume and layer-switching, an OLED to show what it's currently doing, white backlighting, and a compact printed case. Designed as the smallest useful keypad, it now serves as the remote control for a Kodi machine.
