What gas shortage? Inflation adjusted price, gas is about as cheap and plentiful now as it has ever been in the history of gasoline. Seeing that I absolutely abhor the taste of coffee, I have absolutely no interest in the price of coffee beans. Edited October 1, 2021 by apostolakisl Link to comment

I had to wait a year for my GV80 These guys have been waiting literally years for the product to materialize. https://www.atmoshome.com/ I found them more than a year ago when looking around for some type of Sonos wall controller (finally went with brilliant.tech ). Even back then there were lots of promises, but no product. There are comments on Reddit that go back at least 3 years. Link to comment

For me the first company that offers a standard sized switch that offers touch OLED interface to connect to everything in my HA - I’m in! Thus far nothing has come to market that allows this.

Not everybody who is late is going out of business but everybody who is going out of business is likely going to be late. And we have already established that Smarthome is going out of business so just saying I should have seen it coming. 1 Link to comment

Just because their business plan no longer fits your narrative, doesn't mean they are shutting down. 1 Link to comment

The deal breaker for me was having to go through SmartThings in order to get Ring doorbell to integrate. The screen is very small too. I found it very curious that they didn't utilize the available space to the edge for the screen. Link to comment

But then again, going by your "observations" I can name quite a few companies who are going out of business pretty soon Link to comment
larryllix Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Yeah, seriously. I ordered a Yukon 3 months ago and it just came in. Might be faster if the vehicle was made in USA ..like an Alaska? Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk Link to comment

I found it very curious that they didn't utilize the available space to the edge for the screen. Let me check this thing out. Have you done a review of this product anywhere? Would you mind offering one in a new thread if not and provide any insight about this product.Key things for me is what local control is available. Open API and if so those reference links. Which protocol are supported whether Z-Wave, ZigBee, WiFi, POE, BLE, Power Line etc.Viewing angle, power consumption, screen response, camera, speakers? Can the screen be customized to display other things like weather, security, energy?Thanks! Link to comment

It is currently in a box in the garage and I have no plans to hook it up again. I can tell you that Orro did very recently start offering an API. I know nothing more about it. It might even still only be available in beta to select users. The screens are somewhat customizable within the confines of the products that it works with. Beyond that, no. Link to comment
