The Z-wave Alliance is the collaboration of the manufactures who produce the Z-wave products.  The Z-wave products that are available are rather costly considering what they are. Z-wave is just another home automation protocol, it really has not grown to be dominate, (yet). I asked that question in a design class, it's  proprietary, it has lic fees to develop products and has up to now, rather  low market penetration. The transceiver module  is set to 1mw / 0db on it's ISM Band. The FCC here in the states are cracking down on routers (2.4 and 5Ghz) because of the open source projects such as DD WRT and others as people were in the code, changing it and having the transmit/receive power/sensitivity exceed the FCC mandate for those ISM bands. Now the newer routers have the firmware locked out so there is no playing with the calibration coding. Same could have been done with the Z-Wave modules and the Open Z-Wave Project (and other open source coding). This may be why you are suddenly faced with Sigma Design only and the special equip to program the chip. Certification of each chip would than be in order. Than the firmware would be locked down per the FCC request. Z-Wave may not be the only way to go. Since Google and Honeywell have settled thier disputes and NXP and Thread protocol (Google) are in the final stages with and NDA in place, the future may hold something different than Z-Wave. Within a few months you may hear about the release. Subscribe to NXP (NXPI)  RSS or Newsletter. For the time being, if you want the Z-Wave your stuck with what you are doing.  I wonder if that whole Z-Wave will go the way like X10 etc.

I cannot answer for KS team on Bay Area local pick.

Then can you tell them they need to check their email, because 2-3 months turn around time, and I use that term loosely since it would imply they have actually responded, on emails is a bit ridiculous.
If, as tllim tells us "...  there are more than 25,000 shipments out on pass 2 months and still 8,000 plus shipment to go." and this statement is actually correct, I would like to know why, as Backer Number 23517, I have still not received either an email or a tracking number, and my Status is still showing as 'Ready to Ship'?

Thank You.
Just received my March order last night with the extra items and board I added on. It arrived 2 days after I got the shipping notice and 7 days after it actually shipped according to the tracking info. It's pretty but I left on work travel this morning so it will be a couple days before I test it out. It appeared to arrive in good condition.

Well done!

Can I please asked what your backer number was, and also whether or not you ordered any 'add-on' items?

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply, although I don't think your attachment worked unfortunately.

It does look as if you were about 3000 or so ahead of me 'in the queue' though, so it would seem that I still have another week or so to wait yet!

I just hope that it is not my addition of an ABS enclosure, which is causing the delay!

Let's try this again.
