This isn't much of an article. The only point of any substance in it is that Nest devices are difficult to install. This is true, but that's because HVAC systems don't have wireless functionality with a nice clean API. The only way to control them is through hooking up wires.
The article ending with a local evening news type of "Coming up next" is just insulting. Make your point in this article or don't waste my time.
- joezydeco 12y agoAccording to their blog, these are a group of ex-Crestron guys that got into an accelerator a month ago with a "3+ month" plan to "refine our product, team, and strategy". So there's nothing to look at or even discuss. The nice thing about hardware is that you can say "put up or shut up" and it doesn't come off as snarky. Get back to us when you have something better than Nest, because that's what you have to beat right now.
- adestefan 12y agoThere are HVAC systems out there that are controlled via a digital bus where the hookup then becomes power and control. However, these are rare in residential installations where analog switched systems are common.
