The editors didn't like
Enable/disable remote access dance I had to do when adding a new Switch
Must have a mobile device
As there are no PC or Mac apps for the WeMo devices at this time

I have a low tolerance for flakey technology. Usually, I need something to be pretty close to 100% reliable or I won't use it. It tells you something about how much I like the Wemo system that I continue to use it despite the flaws I've described.The reli...
