This has probably already been asked so please excuse me but, can the new WiFi module control the X-10 Transceiver Module (RF)?  Thanks.

..... can the new WiFi module control the X-10 Transceiver Module (RF)?  Thanks.

The WM100 currently has NO RF capabilities and ONLY sends PLC's.

That's to bad.  One step forward, two steps back.

One step forward, two steps back.

True. But the WM100 takes a giant stride (leap?) forward. Although a PalmPad may lose it's effectiveness if the WM100 is the only device you use to utilize X10 control.... you will be able to use a tablet or phone just as easily.... and from anywhere in the world (FAR less limited than X10 RF).

The WM100 has almost completely replaced my CM15A. But I do still have one plugged in (with some macro's loaded and running as well). You can always use a CM15A, TM751, or RR501 to use the X10 RF.

The new options... and there are many more new options than just a new module/device offer a lot of choices... but NOT the same old choices. I think... there are a lot of really great new ideas with how to automate and what makes a smart home smart.

If a new model with an RF feature comes available and replaces the current model, I hope there is a way to turn off RF so those with x10 security consoles don't have interference with their security lights that use RF broadcast by the console.
