APC/Launchpad "Red box" for Ohm64?

Hello everyone!  I was wondering if there were any projects cooking that might give the Ohm64 the ability to navigate the clip view in the way that the APC and Launchpad do.  I really enjoy my Ohm64, but I'm starting to wish it had the functionality of the "red box" I keep hearing about.  
This is a matter of organizing my live performance setup, so I'm looking to navigate and control enough material for a live set without looking at the computer.  The clip navigation paradigm seems to make the most sense to me, but there doesn't seem to be anything like it for the Ohm64.  Are any M4L gurus who think this might be programmable?  Or maybe I'm just thinking about my setup the wrong way...
I'm considering selling my Ohm64 and switching to a Launchpad.  Not that I think the Ohm64 is a bad product, but this particular feature is a big one for me.  It seems silly that the red box a proprietary, licensed API feature.  But that's the way it goes sometimes, I suppose.
Any ideas?

IT does not its only 8 per clip so you have only 64 scenes

Of course you can.
You just need to programm four buttons to go to previous/next track/scene.
For the red box display, you can look at this topic:

There are a couple people I know working on getting the Ohm64/Block integrated into Live by creating some new midi Remote scripts for Live. Hopefully their work comes to fruition soon.

seems worth bumping this - Mike actually did this! I don't know if there's a post on this site about it, but we have a beta of Mike's work hosted here: http://blog.lividinstruments.com/forum/topic.php?id=1157
