Sure, but I personally don't like my devices and appliances making decisions for me, so I suppose by definition I don't like "smart" technology. No one said devices with IP addresses have to make decisions and thus be smart, so a lamp with an SSH server is still a device in the Internet of Things. It's sitting idle until I design software on my own to control it.

I believe that the next big thing in computing is the removal of unnecessary screens and interactions. The next paradigm is a device that is able to seamlessly do for you the routine/predictable tasks you usually do. Replacing a wall switch with an iPhone app doesn't fall under that paradigm.
