I still have X10 stuff but need to move to something else at least for some things. I liked what I saw about z-wave in terms of being on another band from wifi and Bluetooth and also being more secure.
Then again I could wait some more too or just go z-wave and change later if needed.
It seems most USB controllers now support both protocols, so you could mix and match, I suppose. I'm used to Z-Wave, so that's what I buy, but if I could only find something in Zigbee, I'd try it. The dongle I'm using now does both.
