I'm assuming that this cube could not be handled as a normal cube. The gearing would give it an odd feel, like moving a servo by hand, and giving too much torque would probably wear teeth.

To make it feel "normal", you could "assist" the user with the motors, but I'm guessing speed would be severely limited compared to a normal cube.

Just make the faces buttons and have the button press signal a rotation.
