digital Home working group
Well I found the Digital Home Working Group: Home, where the big boyz, Microsoft, Intel, etc. are trying to drive standards for the "digital home". Whatever that is. There are some useful links and stories here, but not much practical which will actually help me make the hard decisions building my own house.
The most useful resource I found here was a link to HomeToys.com actually. They are actually selling things today that you can buy and install in your house. A much larger and more interesting selection than many sites that I have found with a heavy X10 focus.

Ember Embedded RF
Startint to look at Zigbee deals. These guys have been at it for awhile. Ember - Embedded Wireless Networking
The question I have is what have they really built? Simply implementing standards is not interesting. The hardware parts are not interesting. The middleware, datamining, security, authentication, and other software pieces may be. As well as the network operator pieces.
