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.
