1-Wire encoder

Does anyone out there know of either a 1-wire encoder
that will allow selecting a number that will be read by the stamp.
Or a 1-wire serial rom, that will allow reading a stored #.
I really only need about 64 possible combinations,
and this can be done either by selecting the number on a dial,
or pluging in a pre-programmed module.

    Dallas Semiconductor (now Maxim) makes several 1-wire "touch" devices that
    either have pre-programmed 64-bit serial numbers or memory devices you can
    program values into. Called iButtons, they look like watch batteries. DalSemi
    has sockets that allow the user to plug in an iButton and let the basic stamp
    read the contents. The even have a ring so you can wear your iButton on your
    finger! For more info, go to www.iButton.com.

    You will need to use a Basic Stamp BS2P with 1-wire and iButton stuff.
