To make things a little bit more interesting, we are hereby announcing a contest in which you can win the accual product if you're the first person to guess what the product is all about.

If you don't know about TellStick Duo:
Please read more here: http://www.telldus.se/forum/viewtopic.php?t=626

You can participate in the competition as long as you're not employed at Telldus Technologies, any of the suppliers, distributers, retailers for products from Telldus Technologies, or in any other way received prior information of this product.

Good luck and happy guessing!

Hi,

At last! :)

I think the new product is some inteligent switch that works with the new telstick to have more control over you switches,
Like a switch(strömbrytare) that you can query by the Telstick,, not just recive, check status so if there is a manual power on the telstick handles that.

A display (touch controlled/WiFi) with support for Telldus Live and other webbased application with Tellstick support.

I would have guessed on same as Stisse but as this was already mentioned my guess goes on a repeater for the Telldus signal (range extension)

A receiver that can convert signals to IR so that I can switch channel on my tv from my Tellstick?

I think it is more of a tellstick-central that can manage all your units and it saves all the unit-information in the unit itself. The unit can then be used with any computer to communicate with the units without the need to set it all up at that computer again.

It can also check the status of each connected TellStick (with capabilities to send back status) and transfer back to the computer / connected unit.

It also has the capabilites to keep schedules and check other sensors in the house to light up things when it gets dark outside as an example.

That is my thoughs!

A standalone linux-based tellstick controller with wifi and and iphone/android apps to control it
It also has bluetooth built in so it can sense the presence of cell phones and turn devices on and off based on signal strength as you move from room to room :)
Or pause the movie you watch automatically when you go to the bathroom!

(edit: maybe they haven't decided what their new project is but are waiting for someone to come up with a brilliant idea in this contest ;) )

A WIFI/Ethernet TellStick unit with a built-in web server that can be accessed from any unit on the LAN without having to be connected to a computer via USB would be my guess.
Power saving is one of the goals for many users of todays TellStick and a low power, all-in-one unit would be a logic next step.

I think it's a tellstick that doesn't need a computer to run. First you configure the tellstick in a computer, and then it runs all alone... Maybe it also can connect to internet via 3g or wifi and is then controllable from a pc, mobile phone etc.
Of course it can also sense radio signals from other devices such as nexa and similar, and trigger macros to run.

Awesome! Love the transceiver!

My guess is a RF->IR converter but since that already been taken my guess is a tellstick extender and/or signal enhancer :-)
