That indiglo stuff used in night-lights and Timex watches (etc.) -- I wonder what the properties of that stuff is. I wonder if you can cut it into interesting shapes (say, an outline of the empeg buttons) and still power it...

They sell that stuff in the Edmund Scientific catalog for just that sort of purpose. You can cut it into shapes, with some limitations. Although I don't see how you could light effectively around the edges of the buttons, there's no gap between the buttons and the plastic bezel.

I'm starting to like the fiber optic idea...
