And practical :)

Almost every room in my house has a phone -- if I could teach my kids to 
put them back where they belong.

This could easily be extended to recognize which phone was used so it 
could control the Myth FE in that room.

Also, it could/should be extended to control x10 devices as well...

press 2. To control the outside lights, press 3. To control the 
sprinklers, press 4, ..."

Thanks in advance,
