Technically, in an "accordion" UI, the contents of the option bars
don't change. All of the option bars appear in a stack, and expand
when clicked to reveal the sub-options. This is how it resembles an
accordion.
The UI model you describe sounds similar to promotional pens that
rotate through a list of messages when clicked: http://bit.ly/cjaIxz
