how about turning your old android phone into a thermostat?

Is this your way of saying you want your phone back? hehe.

Well once the new nexus comes out I'll have a phone just laying around.

EDIT: buuuuuut with $100 in parts I think I'd rather just spend the extra money for a Nest that's already assembled and guaranteed to work.

That's pretty damn cool. I've always wanted to do tracking of temps like it provides!

i agree totally. i'll cough up an extra hundy for the remote access, the established trending and, ahem, design.

but... i thought it was an impressively ambitious project and another great example of how amazingly great open source software can be.
