Re: [etc-users] ETC features?

[<ani...@ho...>]

Why not create a plugin for HomeSeer? other vendors have so far, and its a
pretty cool piece of software (I would buy it from you)  Homeseer has a
built in web server for X10 control, if you could somehow interface with
that it would be awesome.  With macros within homeseer you could also run
just about any program, MP3's also.
