I looked pretty thoroughly through the site and the product pages, but I still cannot find any discussion of use cases for the Fomu. Is it just education, ie. learning how to program an FPGA? I'm having trouble telling if it even has any dedicated I/O or if you can exclusively interact with it through USB.

All the product pages say: "I have four contact pads that can easily be used to make two buttons. And I have an RGB LED, because everyone loves blinky things!"

Huh, honestly I think the first person threw me off there, I read that but didn't realize it was talking about the device.
