Final HulaHoop Code (Sparkfun Pro Micro + LPD8806)

Credit and MANY thanks to Philihp for the foundational code and instructions: http://philihp.com/blog/2011/diy-led-hula-hoop/

I merely modified the code to:

1. use the arduino's built-in pull-up resistor
2. add effects
3. add colors

I also used different components than Philihp used, including:

1. Sparkfun pro micro (instead of adruino mini)
2. 1x4 membrane keypad - http://www.adafruit.com/products/1332 (instead of tactile switches).
3. USB LiPo charger - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10401 (instead of charger/power plug/receptacle). My main reason for doing this was so that I could use any mini-usb cable hooked into an iPhone/iPod wall-wart to charge the hoop.

Its late. I'll update this readme soon.
