Looks like a DIY homey.
Real shame if it does.
Why? Don't think 433 has an big and bright domotica future.
On the other side there are a lot of options to add it or maybe Matrix it's manufacturer makes it available as a addon.
One can still use the RFXCOM USB device for 433 but that would add another €110,- to the bill.
433 future because of the fact its most used and zwave geek stuff?
Think 433 is going to be replaced by more intelligent protocols such as Z-wave/Zigbee/WiFi/BT.
433 is for now ok, but no more then that.
Looks for example to LoRa, 2.4ghz and Zigbee compliant.
KaKu will always be there for the people who just want to switch a light.
For domotica Z-Wave will be the protocol with some Bluetooth and some Wi-Fi devices.
I don't think ZigBee will make it.
Seems like it has some real potential!
