Down and out the first few weeks of ownership, the Mi Casa Verde Vera has not been an easy purchase to live with. But now that its up and running (for the moment), it is definitely proving to be a great buy for a Z-Wave/Home Automation initiate such as myself.
Keep in mind if you plan on purchasing the Vera as an affordable solution to your home automation project, the Mi Casa Verde forum is alive with community support. Unfortuantely, Mi Casa Verde doesn't always sound like its supporting its community.
You can find some other decent reviews at Electronic House or Engadget. I'm just glad to say that my issues have been resolved and until the next firmware update threatens the Veras stability, I'll be a content user.
