Art, Click the light bulb button(on the top right of the bottom segments). That will turn the unselected segments on and off.
mckenic, let me know which inputs are missing from the order page and I'll add them. As far as programming the board yourself, that will be V1.2! I had intended to make the chips programmable on-board for V1.1, but a flaw in my PCB design made that not possible. For right now, send me the code generated by the Sequence Builder when you order, and I'll program the chip with the sequence before I build the board. Just click the Code Generator button at the top right hand corner, and cut-and-paste the code into the box on the order form.
For those of you wondering what will be needed to program the boards yourself (with V1.2 boards, once available), you will need a PIC programmer with ICSP interface and an assembly compiler. I will put more details on how to do this on my web site once that feature is available.
