iControl Networks' Wireless Remote Monitoring Solution Showcased in Sunset and Popular Science Magazine's 'House of Innovation'

iControl Networks, a leading provider of Web-based solutions to monitor and control your home and business, today announced its participation in the "House of Innovation," a home built by Sunset and Popular Science magazines in the technology-friendly Bay Area that will showcase the future of home building and home products.

"The iControl solution is an obvious choice for the House of Innovation because of its compelling value to homeowners," said Shannon Thompson, Home Programs Director at Sunset. "Most people don't know that do-it-yourself Web- based services that provide 24/7 insight into your home and business are available now, affordable and are very easy to use."

"We view iControl's service as truly ground-breaking," added Popular Science editor in chief Mark Jannot. "Beyond monitoring your home and business, iControl's service can also be used for property management, real estate sales and energy management."

iControl's secure online service dramatically improves one's lifestyle by providing an entirely new way to see, know and respond remotely to one's "life assets" -- their family, home and business -- from anywhere at anytime. Every user has a personal portal that they access through a Web browser on a PC, PDA or cell phone to configure and manage their iControl service from anywhere in the world. Through cameras, sensors and other devices placed around a home or business, users can get information about alarms, view or take pictures, and receive email or text messages when devices are triggered.

"Whether you want to keep an eye on your summer home or know that your child got home safely from school, iControl's service improves its users' quality of life by providing a new level of information and control," said Reza Raji, President and CEO of iControl Networks.

The Sunset and Popular Science "House of Innovation" is located in Alamo, California. The house will be open to the public from September 8 through November 12, 2006, and will be featured in the November issues of Sunset and Popular Science.

The iControl service is available now and starter kits begin at $399 with a monthly fee of $14.95, which includes a range of accessories including wireless network (IP) cameras, door and window sensors, lamp modules, thermostats, smoke detectors, water and freeze sensors and more.
