Dave,
Have you considered doing it all in an XBEE programable ?
Some info here: http://examples.digi.com/category/programmable/

I =
have Xbee installed already. I was considering a handheld box with small
ne=
odymium magnets on the underside to stick to a steel plate on the wall.
The=
micro would keep the Xbee in sleep mode and bring it alive to send the com=
mand. I've not found a way to do this direct on the Xbee modules through
pi=
n wake. Only 1 pin to wake it up. Still working on it. I just wish Zwave
wa=
s available as a module without the stupid expense of applying for a
licens=
e etc.
