Hmm screenshot looks nice but don't you think that square LED's on the widget 
for the button states would give you a better overview as a User which 
buttons work and which are broken ? I mean, that's the sense of such a 
configuration module :) and we should make it as easy as possible usability 
wise. I don't think that the microsoft ones are the best one can make such a 
module but in that respect I found them to be very easy to use at least. Oh, 
and a calibration for the thingy is surely a good idea. You may want to have 
a look at how Qtopia/OPIE is calibrating touchscreens (and re-use that 
widget) - which could be a good start for a kcm module anyway for tablet pc's 
as well.
