[Joe Polastre]

For the POT, i think one part is a simple solution: the Pot interface
should be typed.

Ie:

interface Potentiometer<width_t width, resistence_t r>

so that a Pot exposes what it has, ie

provides Potentiometer<uint8_t, 100000>
for a 255 position, 100k pot.

or something similar to the Timer/Alarm system.

just a thought.

the actual details of what's provided inside this "Potentiometer"
interface are still undefined :)
