Be able to access a home control system remotely via a wireless device. Like you said, access to a browser would probably be the best route of doing this. However, I began thinking that the system could also accept text messages that instruct the system. Thus, this could be useful for those without web capabilities on their phone or when the web is unavailable. I began to look into this, and services that use text like this are already available. (however, Starbucks wasn’t the first to make coffee and look at them now!)
