How I Hacked Amazon’s $5 WiFi Button
I would like it if I could just change what I order. The options are pretty limited right now.

The hilariously sad part is there is no technical reason this feature isn't available. Just change the ASIN the button buys.

Ahh I was wondering if it had some specific API for only allowed purchases. But if that's the case I may buy one of these.

No, no. I said there wasn't a technical reason [e.g. Purchasing N is the same as purchasing Y from Amazon's perspective]. They may have a security policy in place to prevent it.
