usb backgammon board

[RickPorter]

A long shot probably....

There are several chess boards available that register moves and can transmit them to online servers.   
Is it possible that someone has made a backgammon board that interfaces with FIBS?

I'd be very interested.  I don't think making the board would be too difficult using magnets and microprocessor.  No idea
how connecting to fibs would work though. 

I get a sore wrist using a mouse, so I try not to use it often.  The only other way I can think to play online not involving a mouse
would be some kind of hand held device.

Any ideas on any of the above?
