> Better still, any way of doing it with one of the older Palms?

James Traynor was working on a Palm solution.  I tried out the serial
version in March, and he had a prototype of an Ethernet version running
then.  I'm not sure how he got on with it, and whether it's a fully-fledged
product yet.  His website is http://www.mi4.biz/ and the beta serial
version I tested is available there (downloads section).  It's quite a cool
piece of kit, but the main issue is mounting it, IMO.  It's a solution I've
certainly considered for replacing my lightswitches, but PocketPC devices
may work out just as cost effective these days (and look much smarter).

Cheers,
Andy
