Hmmm.... Depends on your benchmark. When I was contracting, an
Applicance module equalled about 35 minute's work. (Assuming I didn't
pay tax.)

It seems so obvious now you mention it!
Hmm... so squeeze remote into standard push button housing
(Waterproofed)
and have it send D1:ON when someone presses doorbell which......causes
X10
chime somewhere in the house to make appropriate noises......sounds
workable
- expensive, but workable.
But then, anything X10 seems to cost an arm and a leg anyway :(
