I would like to suggest using Google Wave as a networking solution for
smart houses.

Google Wave offers instant communications and the posibilty of simple
scripting. As it is hosted from a server, it can be accessed from
anywhere with internet access.

Your house would have it's own wave address. Each item you own would
have one as well. Just add the item to a wave and it would streamline
the networking. For example, if you are at work, your house
temperature may be 80 degrees. Your system know that it takes 12
minutes to bring the temperature to 70. When you are on your way home,
your smartphone Waves your house that you are 12 minutes from home
(using GPS, speed and road reports). Your home is perfect when you get
there.

If you are not familar with this up and coming technology, a developer
preview can be seen at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_UyVmITiYQ it
is 1 hour 20 minutes long so make some popcorn.
