All,
fyi. A US based company, Colorado V-Net apparently has ported their Home
control technology to work with the Nokia Internet Tablet. Here is the
url to the www page for a www site associated with CEPro magazine that
shows the device in action.

Note the quotation in the sidebar:
> It looks suspiciously like a Nokia N800, one of the hottest new
> handhelds for home control.
Just a few days ago I had corresponded with the company to make
precisely that recommendation, i.e.
> 4. The Nokia 800/810 can be configured with a VNC client to
> connect to LInux servers, in addition to the Remote Desktop client
> for connection to Microsoft Windows Servers. Is there a way to
> connect your linux based control system to the home network so
> that a customer with a device like the N800 could connect in from
> the Internet (say over an IPSEC or SSL VPN?) and control their
> home system (e.g. climate/kighting/security) remotely using this
> method? If not, have you implemented some other method of remote
> support?
Here is the url to the www site for Colorado V-Net which also has a
Zigbee based wireless lighting control solution:

Colorado Vnet is founded by the same individual who, some years ago,
founded Colorado Memory Systems.
