Work in progress...
I never had a BeBox, but I really liked the Geekport they had. It was a general I/O port, for random hacking projects.
This is an Altoid-tin-housed similar port, portable and iPhone-friendly. With a jailbroken iPhone/iPodTouch/iPad, you can access /dev/tty.iap and easily splat stuff through its dock connector serial port. This is a small board with an ATmega48 uC whose UART interfaces to the dock connector serial pins.
Anyway, again fairly half-finished. It has a 1-wire DS18B20 temperature sensor and pictured is a little test prog on an iPT, dumping the temperature. I have a NES gamepad that plugs into the I/O header too, which the AVR can read. There are I2C, GPIO and ADC pins available.... for portable McGyver (sp) ri0t engineer fun!
