iPhone App Store to host loads of home automation programs

Filed under: , , , ,

Handhelds (and handsets, in particular) have long since been used as tools for home automation, but the forthcoming App Store is likely to bring a niche concept to the masses… or some of them, at least. Beginning on July 11th (that’s the iPhone 3G launch day, you know), a Crestron interface titled iLoveControl will be available for download; during the first 30 days of launch, said app will “offer a one-room Crestron solution free of charge, configured for the control of lights, drapes, HVAC, audio and video.” If you’re looking to control more than that, it’ll cost you $250 per configuration. This is just one example of what’s likely to fill the App Store, and quite frankly, we’re pretty excited about the possibilities.
