WiFi Thermostats

As technology marches on, even thermostats have been affected. Now you can buy a "wifi thermostat" (or "ip thermostat", "internet thermostat", etc) which will allow you to control your thermostat settings remotely, be it from a computer or even your iPhone! I suppose some people may utilize this technology to hang out in bed in the morning before turning up the heat with their phone, but these devices are really handy for the frequent traveler, landlord, or anyone who owns a vacation home. While a programmable thermostat has already made many people's lives easier (and cheaper), a thermostat with wireless capabilities takes things to a whole new level. Now, while a wifi thermostat is cool and affordable for many, it is still a relatively new technology. Before buying one of these gadgets yourself, make sure you understand how things work. http://www.squidoo.com/wifi-thermostat
