We saw Xperinet at the CEDIA show last year. Looks like they took a 
snapshot of a release or CVS and preconfigure COTS hardware. We'll be 
taking a much closer look at them this coming CEDIA but they have had 
penetration in our market (custom install) as far as we and our 
reps/insiders know.

PlutoHome is making a go at a total convergence solution (A/V, security, 
telco, bluetooth cell-phone 'follow-me', etc.) I think 'sigtom' of this 
august list was trying out their system.
