I bought this switch...

And I need to wire it up.  The direcitons say that it can not be used as a 
replacement switch for a standard '2 wire' wall switch.

Does anyone know how I can wire this switch (or if they make a switch) 
that is lit when the switch is "ON" (most are lit when they are off.)

Or do they make a switch to do this with just the standard 2 wire outlet. 
(normal wall switches are just a 'hot' and 'return' line with no common. 
Do I have to rewire the wall switch?

Thanks in advance.
