Hi,

I am based in the uk, I am new and looking to automate my home quite
quickly
and have been researching some of the products available.

I am really checking that I am going down the right route before parting
with cash !!

I would like to get to the point whereby I have near complete control over
everything internaly by voice and then remotely over the web.
I have read the reviews on the voice products and I am currently leaning
towards the "Home Voice" product, does anyone have any views on
this ?

Prior to getting to my final goal, I believe I need to invest in some X10
products for the ability to control the range of electrical items in the
house, and the need for a central controller which again I have read the
reviews and ended up with a 2 horse race between Homeseer and HomeVision. I
am leaning more towards Homevision because of its standalone and
"TV"
ability.

Again can anyone comment on this.

Finally I am looking to purchase all of this for use in the UK,
Can UK spec be purchased abroad easily if so where ?
Or does anyone know a good UK supplier with good technical support should I
need it ?

Many thanks

Nigel
