My comment may have sounded cynical, but I have been responsible for this space at Vodafone R&D and we had led several focus groups with entire families and psychologists, where most products that one side wanted to control light switches and heat met big opposition from the rest of the family, since they felt it took control away from them. Nest is a different proposition and is doing well for good reasons. But for home automation the right prop has yet to be found.
