The new NEST Thermostats, as seen on http://www.thecoolist.com/, learns your home temperature patterns from your initial manual usage so it can self adjust unless otherwise directed. Created by a team of Apple ex-employees, this über cool “learning thermostat”  adapts to the user’s temperature habits - it even suggests energy efficient settings by displaying a green leaf…in case the user is inclined to learn from it as well.

It is remote controllable via computer or smart phone, I want one now.

This sleek, smart & user friendly device prices at $249 and appears to pay for itself with the savings on energy bills. To find out more go to http://www.nest.com/living-with-nest/ .  So, what do you think, is this cool or what?
