Thanks for the response. Based on what I've seen so far, it seem as though XBee is a very good option. It's a well-developed standard, and with nice mesh-networking capabilities. You'd need something like an attiny on the sensor end to do some translation. I know this is possible and there are code snippets all over the place. If anybody has experience doing the 1Wire-UART-Xbee-Xbee-owfs chain, I'd love your input. On the other hand, if you only need a couple temperature sensors on the far end, you could just as easily set up thermistors on the built-in XBee IO.
