Just curious about a number of points:

1. Did you implement some kind of "acceleration" -- when the user
   holds either of the buttons down for an extended length of
   time, do you change the value at a faster pace and in larger
   blocks?  I played around with this, and it was pretty easy
   to implement.  The "Adjustable" interface came in handy because
   it defined a "block" increment property.  Using a timer and
   the block increment value, you can have fun watching the 
   value zoom up or down.

2. Did you provide a way to bound the values -- upper and lower limits
   to the value -- and range-checking of the value a user sets by entering
   text?

3. Did you implement a NumericDocument by extending PlainDocument
   so that only characters 0 - 9 are acceptable input?

If so, I'd say you have a mighty fine component.  Reminds me of
the numeric input control in LabVIEW, a completely graphical
programming environment.
