2GHz Sheeva Plug – Energy monitoring plug computer by 4Home and Marvell

How small could a Linux computer get? Small enough to fit into the palm of your hands, designed by Marvell, this energy monitoring plug is a computer in itself. Designed to give Intel a run for its money in this department, the device developed in partnership with 4Home, the 2GHz Sheeva Plug will be capable of measuring power consumption right out of the outlet.

Well, you don’t really need to spend that fat wade of notes on some expensive automation kit just to figure out how many lights have been switched on in your home. You can now keep a close check on your electricity bill using this device, which is bound to be comparatively cheaper, though the price isn’t announced yet. Worrying about your home’s power consumption is now an event of the past, with intelligent devices like these around.
