RHC: Even though they don't fit in my "target market", I have heard
some good things about the 2Gig panel. One large national company up
here (Protectron) has taken them on as a line and they sell very well
apparently. However, they are still another totally wireless option
with emphasis on neither home automation or security, so I would be
naturally suspicious (or at least very cautious)

I had planned a meeting with their Product Manager up here, but it got
cancelled due to my trip south. I just never followed up with him. A
third line of panels is just one more I have to support in my
business, and my gut tells me that is one too many...
