I'm not really sure how to do it, but I'll look into it. All the graphs and stuff are kinda "pre-canned" by the software I'm using. It is open source, so if I get some free time I can look into it. There is another site that has much more data, though a lot of it is redundant and disorganized. It may give you some info that is more useful: http://alternet.us.com/wview/ Specifically, at the bottom of the page, there is the "NOAA Climatological Summaries", and the monthly report has a row per day and a rain column. That may be something that you could use in a script of some kind. That is a good idea. I’m not really sure how to do it, but I’ll look into it.

I would really like to try to fly it using the video. That would be really fun. I'm totally surprised by how close I am to everything while flying around. I can tell you that the view from outside is very different from inside. :) Most people that remotely fly use a camera mounted on servos so they can look around, including head tracking goggles and everything. It's all pretty dorky, which means I love it! ;) The setup is really expensive, though. Yah, it’s live. I would really like to try to fly it using the video. That would be really fun.

It's true that simple network (TCP/IP) stacks are becoming more common in embedded devices. I think that's a good thing. I'm always wishing that companies would make it easy for hackers in this arena. I have a dish network satellite TV box, it has an ethernet connection, and the even charge more if it's not on the internet. It wouldn't be much for them to allow a telnet connection to the box allowing simple commands to change channels, turn off/on, etc. But they don't :( Thanks!

I agree that it'd be nice for this to be a standard option... The frameworks Apple created for the iPhone are neat in that you could allow the user to download an XML file describing a menu structure that would a hierarchal UI. The leaves of that "tree" like structure being actions. With that, you could map user actions to all kinds of home-automation like tasks. This may be especially interesting if you had a lot invested in X10, or a "street of dreams" like house. Thanks!

When I was ordering parts I couldn't find a matching part number. The one I actually ordered was a little different. I think at least one of the pairs (through the transformer) was open and half grounded. The ethernet controller was really hot, so I ended up desoldering it. Sparkfun has a breakout board with their magjack part and uses the same controller. I'll probably use that as a blueprint for next time. @yzf600 I think the problem was that I waited about 2 months from making the mag Jack part outline and ordering the parts.
