Ah, one more property to the "simple" card. At what point in adding 
properties is it not simple?

I think the property should be specific as to the type of device. What 
if you have 2 amps? Maybe simple-card can't have 2 outputs. What if you 
have a chain of devices and need to know the order of them?
