Thanks Stuntman, I forgot about this newsletter. Now that I have moved and and not have an intercom, I need to think about this type of thing. I did have the older X10 software installed on my computer, but I hardly ever used it. That's just me though. The majority of people would get a lot of benefit from it. Quadius

If you sign up for their news letter, X-10 runs specials all the time. I've gotten their light and appliance modules at bargain basement prices, along with wireless cameras and recievers. Not only can I control lights etc, but I can see who is at the door, in my front room, or my computer area from bed. I can also arm an alarm or set my computer and/or VCR to record via movement in front of one of the cameras. It can also automaticaly dial several emegency numbers with a message. All with no monthly fee. Stunt On 5/15/07, Quadius <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I use a X10 remote with a transmitter and appliance modules.
