Do you really need remote-access?  Really?  If you really don't need
that (and really, you don't, it's a gimmick), these work great and are
guaranteed spouse-approved:

Not remotely accessible but programmable with four time periods in a day
(Wake, Leave, Return, Sleep) and Weekday/Weekend banks (5-1-1).  It's
all you really need in a single-zone thermostat, with hysteresis
learning.  And it's got a clock.  And a backlit LCD display.  Unless you
must have time periods different for every day, then there's a 7 day
model for a little more money.

Yes, this is totally OT.  ;-)

Mike
