Hey All,
Thought I would share this with you. I have had to be pretty tight lipped about a lot of things (and still have to be about a lot that are yet unannounced) but a few of the products have been taken out of the bag by URC Press Releases so here is the summary!

Total Control has announced Z-Wave Integration and will be demonstrating the technology at CEDIA. I have been using this in my home for a few weeks now and so far have been controlling my Door Locks.

The TRC-1080 will again be discussed, but this time a working demonstration unit will be available and a close release date at that! While I don't know what that date is, I can say we have working prototypes so Alpha testing should begin shortly!

30 New Modules! Lots of excitement will surround these - some of you may have seen that Extra Vegetables just announced three new modules for Total Control that they will be showing at CEDIA as well including Roku, Popbox, and Dune... a few surprise guests may also appear! [Link: cepro.com]

16 new products overall so this is just a preview of what's coming!

Braden, I saw this earlier in my CE Pro email blast. Very exciting. Have you messed with the Roku driver? Any word on pricing? That is a very easy to add on feature that clients will love. Easy way to just throw a Roku in a bid instead of having them rely on bluray or god forbid TVs for media streaming.

The picture in the email blast showed what looked like a MX1200 though, while I know the TRC-1080 is based off the MX890. Guessing just a mistake in whoever put the artwork for that blast together.

If it did it's just a mistake the TRC-1080 is very similar to the MX-890 except it utilizes Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n 2.4Ghz) for communication instead of IR or 418/433Mhz RF.

Hi everyone

Here's a screen shot of the upcoming Roku URC integration running on an iPhone.  It will automagically retrieve all the channels from the Roku and display them on all two way URC UIs.
