Belkin has introduced a new Crock-Pot-brand slow cooker integrated with the company's WeMo home automation technology. According to Belkin, this will be the first of a number of WeMo enabled small appliances, including items like space heaters.
The Wi-Fi-enabled cooker looks nearly identical to other similar slow cookers, with controls on the front for toggling warm, low and high settings -- but chefs can use the WeMo iOS app to adjust temperatures and set automated on/off timers.
The "Crock-Pot Smart Slow Cooker enabled with WeMo" will be available for $99.99 this spring.
Belkin also announced new LED light bulbs that work with the WeMo system, similar to Philips' Hue bulbs.

what is belkin thinking? no thunderbolt? not even usb3? At the very least I'd expect a modern crock pot to have some SD memory options
No thanks. I'll grab a pizza on the way home.
This seems like just another one of those "Pot calling the iKettle (http://www.firebox.com/product/6068/iKettle) Space Grey" sort of situations if you ask me.
