| Nest Learning Thermostat |
When we heard the iPod's creators were planning a new
product, we surely weren't thinking about HVAC systems. Yet here we are,
staring longingly at the Nest Learning Thermostat ($250). This gorgeous, intelligent
gadget learns from your habits, programming itself in about a week and using
its colorful display to help you learn more energy-efficient and money-saving
habits, while sensors keep track of whether or not you're at home, and a Wi-Fi
connection makes sure every Nest in your home is aware of the other and the
weather outside, so it can understand how the changing temperatures affect your
heating and cooling needs. You can even control it over the web via a computer
or iOS device. Sure, $250 sounds like a lot for a thermostat, until you realize
that it's controlling half of your heating and cooling bill.
