In this episode of your favorite smart home podcast, Dan Turk joins to co-host. In the news this week we have the new SwitchBot Hub 3 and facial recognition lock, the Thorbolt X1 deadbolt with Home Key, and Nanoleaf's new remote-controlled solar garden lights. Beyond that, your hosts get deep into the Jony Ive IO acquisition and how it makes sense for tomorrow's smart home.
