Fw: Re: Heatmiser - advice please?!

["noel_pilot" <HA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So....for someone with almost zero serial experience or knowledge, nor
do I own Comfort or homeseer, is it pretty unlikely that i'd be able
to reasonably simply web enable the homeseer thermostats short of the
=A3350 kit?!

I thought I'd seen some thermostats with built in web capability
possibly US based sites before but having issues finding them now,
will keep hunting but confirmation if im thinking right re above would
be good!
Thanks all, interesting reading!

Noel
