You ARE so going to get a raise this year and we are all piling on you for a huge party! itâs bed time for us babies here! Good night and have fun.
Very well put! My thoughts exactly.
I think ST was a much better deal. They got a full (though not fully working) HA platform for $200 mil + 1000 free developers.
SmartThings doesnât release much in the way of devices and smartapps. They try to put out a good platform and hope we figure out the rest. I think the Samsung relationship is a viable one.
Our dishwasher is pretty old and noisy. When the time comes Iâll definitely check to see if Samsung sells a connected dishwasher. Built in connectivity would set their product out from the many other choices if I can just plug it in and have SmartThings report energy use and turn it on for me when we are sleeping. SmartThings itself doesnât need to generate revenue in this model. If it can increase Samsungâs device and appliance revenue by just 5 or 10% in a few years⊠thatâs a lot of dough.
