WHAT!

Once things are in the digital domain that's not really a problem.  Look
how
many GSM handsets there are in this country!  DECT is another good example.

As I said, it's far from perfect (sure it could be improved immeasurably)
but with millions of installations world wide you can't say it's not a
"usable" system.  I considered many different systems but there
were none
that offered the affordability, availability and interoperation that X10
affords.

Ah ha...but those are "thank-you" letters to me for taking her to
heaven and
