After Promixis and its Promixis Girder we present a new program allowing iPhone users to control their homes. Lagotek in cooperation with Ikanos Consulting Go Gadgets™ technology created “HIP Modes” Sideshow home control gadget working on iPhone and iPod touch.

Both companies have managed to harness Vista Sideshow’s technologies for home automation use. Windows SideShow is a technology built into Windows Vista that makes it possible to use small software applications, called gadgets, on small-screen connected devices such as remote controls, fridge magnets and secondary displays on laptops.

    Wow. That’s a lot of features. More than I ever thought possible. Wasn’t it just not too long ago when this was all just a dream? We’ve only ever seen this type of thing in movies. Personally, I’m not a techie person. It makes me wonder how many people would actually take the time to sync their iPhone with their home.

    I completely agree:) I grew up watching scifi movies with cool gadgets that can do anything. iPhone seems to be a sufficient platform for that — if only it was also open source we woyuld’ve seen even more neat uses for it:)
