It looks to me that the code uses the contents of the LED section of the SPROM 
to initialize
dev->led_radio. Can we be certain that the initialization will always be done?

If a key event (down/up) is not sent, the LED remains off. This location may 
not be the best place,
but it is needed someplace, otherwise the switch must be cycled off/on to get
