I think the iPhone/Touch will be useful once there is a native orbiter app running. I'm working on porting the Orbiter to CocoaTouch, but it will be at least a few weeks before that's available on jailbroken phones and at least two months before it is officially sanctioned by the App Store. Despite being semi-closed systems, Apple's units seem to be very well suited for the task.

Hari - you're amazing!

So it would be safe at this point to order a couple and replace the ones I currently have?

Any progress on this thermostat krys?
