Well, I don't know where you've seen all those 1132CU-s on eBay, but I
did not find them. On the other hand, as I was looking around more, I
also noticed the 2414U USB interface that looks and functions pretty
much the same as the 1132CU, so one of them must be the more recent one,
I guess. Then even more interesting is the 2412N model with an ethernet
interface that allows the use of web browser to control it from anywhere
through the Internet. This sounds to me the most attractive option as
you basically would not be dependent on an operating system. Any Java
enabled Web browser would do it. I sure would like to hear from anybody
who has an experience with this one. Basically what I would like to see
from such an interface is to be able to program the X-10 or INSTEON
devices to be turned on or off at given times and also do
out-of-schedule, direct on-off action through the web interface.
