Maybe what we& #39;re seeing is a reality that putting smart in devices is a much more strategic decision than thought, and doing what is possible because of the supply chain isn& #39;t right but separating information/control from human interface is right. Like we don& #39;t need "smart" TVs.

What is really going on now with "smart" home is analogous to the middle of PC era c. 2000 when we tried to turn everything into a PC. Right end experience (eg computable) but wrong implementation. Turning everything into a "phone" is right end experience, wrong implementation.
