It would be interesting to take a traffic "blinker", add the board  
inside the housing and powered by two six-volt batteries, along with a  
USB Wi-Fi adapter, acting as a sort of hot-spot/island serving up some  
static pages from a USB key. The amber light on top could flash to  
indicate activity level...
