Socket 'timer' I can switch remotely from iPhone?

Is there anything available?

[CraigVmax]

x10 might, maybe using the pc interface and try to get the iphone to talk to the pc?

[CraigVmax]

in fact, look for an app called X10 commander

I'm sure the GadgetShow tested one of these last year but I can't remember the manufacturer or product name. Not very helpful sorry

Get a scottish power unifi.

Looked into that x10 stuff. There appears to be lots of kit i'd need to do a fairly simple task.

Was looking for a 1 box solution ideally... I'll keep looking!

I use Z-wave to do some stuff

e.g. http://zwave-products.co.uk/

I use iVera on the iPhone to control a MiCasaVerde hub which is used to configure lights, switches, CH, water heater etc. It works reliably well but there is a restricted product range and it is quite expensive.
