QWebL Home Automation Software Integrates with Media Center
Recently QWebL announced their
intentions to bring their home automation software to Media Center and
other platforms including touchpanels, phones, and more. A week or so ago they also announced
a contest in which they are giving away two $1,000 American Express gift cards
for video entries on your frustrations with remote controls for your home and/or
your dream feature in a home automation system.
I’ve recently had a chance to see QWebL in action, and I can
really say that they are doing things differently than anyone else on the
market. As I’ve been trying to write
more about home automation, I was wondering what everyone would like to see in
home automation software. Not only will
it let me better know what to cover, but those who are smart can take the
information and record it in a 1-5 video
for a chance to win $1,000 (and if you don’t, I will).
From a consumer standpoint what do the existing Media Center
applications do right and wrong? For you
custom installers out there, do you currently use Media Center based home
automation systems (Life|ware, mControl, Cortexa)? What do they do wrong?
According to the countdown
on their website you have 3 weeks 3 days 22 hours 57 minutes 29 seconds (as
of my typing this) to enter the contest that QWebL is holding, and I think
around the same time you will get to see what QWebL is about.
