Comcast into Smart Homes

This space is going to be a gold rush.

....and this entry is interesting, as a content provider, it's going to have an even bigger urge to provide large screens in small packages...

Comcast.. C|Net
Comcast, however, has already built a platform that supports smart-home devices like connected door locks, thermostats and lights though the biggest screen in every house: the TV. Its X1 system primarily serves as way for Comcast's cable video subscribers to watch their TV programming, but it also supports smart-home devices already. X1 has also already integrating streaming video services like Netflix and YouTube, and it has a remote that responds to voice commands.

XFINITY WIFI

We are going to be viewing a lot more content on our portable devices. PicoP will make it possible, and much more desirable. Access to the content through mobile networks will be difficult until 5G becomes widely available. (Here's a reminder about 5G capabilities)

XFINITY has a great solution for fast data connections able to keep us in content. These are FREE WIFI connections if you're already an Xfinity customer, or you can pay them a monthly fee.

Wherever there is an Xfinity Customer with WIFI -- you'll have WIFI access as well!

The Ecosystem is ready for PicoP -- right out of the gate, and that is a rare and beautiful thing for a new kind of technology.
