Re: More things to buy
Why worry?
It is just a way to sell more Apple branded items to support an alleged 'need' I for one do not have using a device I will never want and never use.
It is like all the wonderful steps they have taken so far, they are selling snake oil to those who buy dreams. To those not in their club they are close to or less than nothing.
I have never owned anything Apple, never missed anything Apple and will never want anything Apple, so for me it is of no interest.
Some home automation could have very limited value, but note the words 'home automation'. I don't want, don't need and have no use for a so called smart phone so why buy a smart phone extension from any source?
A remote to control in home thermostats, might replace legs one day - the old ones are getting old, but probably by then the need, interest and the capability to care or understand will have gone.
