Turn off lights?

[Nabraham]

Saw a commercial for the iphone and one of the apps the woman turns off the lights/fans in her house by using an app. Is there anything like that in the Android market?

Thanks!

Droidseer. I haven't used it so I can't give an opinion.

Do you already have X10 or some other type of controls for your home?

Thanks, no i don't have x10 controls. I was really just curious how the whole thing worked and if there was an app in the android market for it.

Does the Droid phone work with this system?
Not at this time. This phone uses an Android based operating system which requires specific Schlage LiNK application software. While the Schlage LiNK application software isn't available at this time, it is being considered for 2010 deployment. Continue to check this website for updates.

There was a documentary on this on the gadget show (UK Tv Program) and they were controlling a house from the uk and the house was in romania i think, but they were saying that the controls cost something like 30k to install on the house.

Search on youtube for gadget show iphone control house or something

EDIT: Sorry i lied, it was in Dubai and it cost 25k

Check out Vera Z-Wave controllers at Micasaverde.com.

I currently have a thermostat and about 9 switches controlled by it then use an android app called Homebuddy to control those items remotely. So far I love this new level of control. Z-wave appears to be the only protocol that is truly DIY so much cheaper than most others.
