    maybe later... ;-)
    I might install a motion sensor in the hall to switch the lights on.
    There will definitely be an outdoor light level sensor. That would allow me to trigger certain actions when it gets dark or light outside. I don't think it makes sense inside.

      I've got a few estimote beacons as a developer preview. The windows in my room would make good locations for trilateration so I'm considering dual purposing these as they have an accelerometer built in. Probably no good for determining open close state but could work for security purposes to detect an opening window. If you're listening Idratek folks I have a second set of 3 you can loan PM me if interested.
