From USA Today:
Imagine coming home and, with the push of a single button, turning on the lights, turning up the thermostat and flipping on the TV. Another button might shut off all the lights and turn down the thermostat when you leave.
Starting next month, Best Buy will sell a “ConnectedLife.Home” package that features a computer with software coordinating a high-definition TV, light switches, a thermostat and two remote cameras — all included in the $15,000 price tag.
The components talk to one another over the home’s power lines and through a wireless network.
