The big app here is linking all of your (Android) appliances to a home energy management system (over your existing electrical wiring -- don't need to rip up the walls) to the new smart meter outside your home onto the Smart Grid. You get a rebate from your utility company if you let them fiddle with your air conditioner, etc. during peak load times. Lower cost, reliable components are now available, after many false starts. Finally, the Smart Home.
The phone has 256MB of RAM and a 1GHz processor, which do the job reasonably well, though the Anna interface will likely leave something to be desired for many smartphone users.
