Re: Starting over?

[Stuart Worrall <stu.worrall@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think the main thing for me is giong to be the x-10 as im finding it
increasingly difficult to find the CES bulbs i need for the lights to work
with the LD11's.  Hopefully something dimmable in the LED or CF products
will become available at a reasonable price.  If not theyll have to be
taken
out or replaced with c-bus which I dont really have the budget for at the
moment.

I think tablet integration will speed along now with the introduction of
the
ipad and others coming soon.  Its never really worked yet as it was always
something you had to boot up or leave running which didnt work as well as
an
instant on ipad or itouch.
