CES2020: Wemo smart plug

Belkin’s New Wemo Smart Plug Is Available For Purchase.  (ubergizmo, 7/20/2020)

The device was originally announced at CES 2020, and it looks like it is now finally available for purchase. In case you missed the original announcement, this is a smart plug that you can plug regular non-smart devices too, like a table lamp, for example. This means that once your device is plugged into it, it will gain some “smart” capabilities like being able to remotely control its operation through your phone.

A dream come true for $25.  Controlling a table lamp with my phone.

A majority of Amazon customer reviews are in the 5-star category, but 61 people are definitely not happy with the product.
