:( Hi Chris or anyone who has one 3-way switch right now... How does the 3-way work? I did not see any manual for any of the 3-way capable switches on the Intermatic site! Really looking forward to know how it works ;)

Thanks Ken, It would be my guess as well that the signal would not actually blocked, but 'radiated' out the front?! I guess, I'll have to bite the bullet and give it a try. Will get some 'on wall' switches to provide better coverage... Z-Seer sounds interesting, but HomeSeer appears way too...

Thanks StevenE, What do you use for controller? Do you use a PC with s/w? Chris in GTA

And what about "ThinkEssentials Home Automation Software" It does support Z-wave. http://www.controlthink.com/zwavesdk.htm Or is this too narrow of a support base?

I'm an automation newbie, and have an interest in Z-wave. What I'm curious about is the RF propagation. Right now I only plan to use about 4 devices and 3 of them are in wall switches. My wall boxes are metal; will that direct the RF in a certain direction? And do I need to place my devices...
