Super Cheap "Archos Smart Home" Kit, Brings Automation to the Masses

If you're Wondering When Home Automation Might Tip into the Walmart-Level Mainstream, here's a Sign: "Archos Smart Home" Starter Kit is Now on Sale. Along with 2 Cameras, 2 Movement Tags and 2 Weather Tags, they're Throwing in a Controlling Tablet, All for $250 -- or $25 Each for the Cameras and Sensors. Considering the Tablet, that's Even Cheaper than SmartThings' Low-End Kit. Archos Says, it's the 1st to Use the Bluetooth Smart Technology in Connected Homes and Engineered it to Work at Double the Normal Distance (65 Instead of 32 Feet) with Up to 13 Devices. That'll Permit it to Take a Photo When a Movement-Tagged Door is Opened, for instance, Using its Scenario Editor and the Tasker Android App. Archos also has Controllable Plug Sockets, Alarm Sirens, Motion-Detectors and Even a Pet Tracker Planned for the Future. The Kit should Hit its Online Shop Soon but, Fair Warning -- Archos is Known for Low-Priced but, Not Exactly High-End Goods.
