CES 2008: Omnistat2 Thermostat

The Omnistat2, a 7 day programmable communicating thermostat, won an honoree award at CES for Design and Engineering in Home Appliances. It's made to precisely control the temperature and humidity within your home and it'll learn your home's heating and cooling patterns and automatically adjust the controls for efficiency and comfort.

The Omnistat claims it'll cut the average home's energy bill in half where it comes to heating and cooling. I have no word on price but you can expect to see the first two models in this line around the 2nd quarter of this year. It sounds like a wonderful device to me and I can understand why it won an award.
