I've had good luck with my Omnistat RC-80. The graphical interface
that Chuck wrote that uses the basic library that I got working looks
pretty nice, but I've never used the web based stuff. I just have a
couple of buttons on my console that change the mode between home,
away and sleep.
If I want to change the setpoints while I'm home, I just push the
buttons on the thermostat. Yeah, I know that sort of goes against
what we stand for around here, but it works!
