Offer respectfully challenged! I hate both those devices trying to find their way into home automation systems, I know it's too late to fight it.. I guess Im just too stubborn!
I completely understand, but these devices arent going anywhere and more companies are dedicating resources to bring them into home automation. I dont think the iPad wil ever replace dedicated touch panels, but it is nice to be able to pick one up and control your system when needed.
There is a huge difference between a client who has multiple touch panels and 48 zones of AV, HVAC, lighting, shades, etc... And the guys who want to be able to control a couple rooms of equipment via IR. A lot of the guys on here are do it yourself / tweakers who like to find inexpensive ways to control thier own systems.
