ZigBee gets more serious about home automation

Dec 11th 2007 10:33PM on Engadget

I beg to differ. ZigBee is indeed within reach of the at-home DIY-er, and for cheap. I managed to design and build a ZigBee capable node for $21, and I know there are commercial nodes available for around $50. There aren't too many DIY projects using ZigBee out there yet, but give it a few months, and I think that will change.
Or, people will ditch the extra overhead of ZigBee and just use 802.15.4, though that certainly won't catch on commercially since it doesn't have a spiffy name.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
