You may also find some interesting and helpful resources on 
programming the Launchpad in this article from CDMu:

http://createdigitalmusic.com/2009/11/02/novation-releases-all-midi-details-for-launchpad/

It outlines the MIDI spec for exactly what the Launchpad is sending.

There's also a link to a Monome emulator (the Nonome) that has 
already been ported to work with the Launchpad.
