Hey, I know...the point was that they are doing these "thematic" purchase pages...there's also a "Home Theater" version, for example. (At least they restored the listing page. It was MIA for a day or 2.)
I don't entirely disagree with the idea, which is to show non-techies HOW to apply these crazy computerized switches...but it is basically targeting the NON-home automation market...meaning people who are NOT currently interested in Controller-based automation.
My concern is...does this represent a recognition on SH's part that Insteon won't live up to its intended HA utilization? Maybe the problems they are having with firmware/sdm have caused them to re-prioritize?
(I hope not, cause I just bought my HomeSeer license--was trialing--based on the progress of this plugin.)
