My Cm11A is beginning to faulter...not necessarily stop working but
inconsistant. I looked into the new Active Home Pro w/ CM15A. Boy,
does that thing sound like it is full of flaws!

Right now, I would like to get the SmartHome...but can I still use all
my X-10 modules and switches? It looks like I can but I don't want
to spend the money if it doesn't work!

Any others have experience with this?




The best thing about dating a homeless person is that
at the end of the date, you can drop them off anywhere.

You got that right! From the history of the old ActiveHome
it'll be 2-3 years before they get ActiveHome Pro (and probably
the CM15A hardware) debugged.

Yeah, the standard X10 modules are supported by the SmartHome
controllers.
