Right now the big issue is that an automated wifi light is great until the mechanical switch is turned off - then it's useless; also they seem to be a novelty so far - I haven't seen any integration protocols to tie them to ther systems like you can with the established protocols like X10, Insteon, Z-Wave and UPB.

Yeah, I guess they're like a x10 socket rocket but with a bulb already attached.
Still I use the Milight(Easybulb) ones in my setup with x10.

Some manufactures like Philips(hue) have released an API or SDK or plan to soon, probably because users were using Wireshark to capture commands anyways.
If the LIFX bulbs don't have an API or SDK it is good to know you can get the commands to intergrade into your system.
I used the manufactures (Easybulb) phone app to send the commands which I was able to capture and program into my PC HA software.
