What is the outlook for the home networking and home automation market?
All reports point to a healthy, growing home networking industry. According to the CEDIA survey released in 2003, 71 percent of the firms surveyed reported that business improved in 2003. Seventy-three percent of the firms surveyed said they intend to hire more workers in 2004. The growth of the market will depend, largely, on the introduction of lower cost technologies and the continued growth in consumer awareness of the value of custom electronics systems for the family.
