A day in the connected life.

How homework works.A kids’ Internet radio station streams through the speakers. Last night’s TV shows run on the fl atscreen. Cool toys in your own room makes studying a lot more fun.

Men don’t cry while watching sports.Unless they’re chopping onions. Pause the game on the kitchen TV; go fi nd a towel.

The fi rst rule of vacation.Don’t worry. Check the house through remote access, then pull on your fl ippers.

Baby, you look fabulous.With a nursery cam connected to video screens around the house, watching the baby becomes the best thing on TV.

The popcorn’s ready. Start the movie.With one click of the remote, the lights fade down, the surround sound cranks up, and the excitement begins.

Lights out at 11.Kids tucked in bed. Late news on the bedroom TV. The house changes the lights and thermostat to their overnight settings. Sweet dreams!

The late show.Romantic comedy. Borrring.The kids sneak downstairsand watch a different movie in the den.

Share an awesome adventure.A digital scrapbook of the kids at summer camp makes distant relatives feel a lot closer.

Splash!While the girls play in showers too fun to miss, the DVR saves their favorite TV shows.

Busy morning.Watch the news, check the markets and read email while moving from bedroom to kitchen to den. You’re multitasking in a bathrobe.

Say goodbye to the house.The house turns off the lights and dials down the thermostat.

Living the connected life means turning down the thermostat in your living room.

From the beach on Kaua’i.

You call. Your home answers. A secure Internet connection provides access to your ConnectedLife.Home system from anywhere: across town or halfway around the world.

Once you log in, you’ll see the same familiar interface screens you see on the TV in your living room. That gives you control over everything — surveillance cameras, lights, climate control, even DVR scheduling and music playlists.

Please note that after your included 30-day trial, there is a $19.95 monthly fee for remote access service.

Remote Access

Sandals? Check. Sunblock? Check. Lights off? Oops. No matter how far you roam, ConnectedLife.Home lets you pack peace of mind along with your fl ippers.

Just get on the Web from your mobile phone or any computer, and you can control lights, thermostat, even spy on the cat. Or show off pictures of your kids by accessing your home’s media server.

Forget something? No worries. Just log in, check in, then enjoy the beach.

• Remote access to surveillance cameras let you watch over the house while you’re away — or keep tabs on your vacation place when you’re home.

• Forgot to setup the recording of that must-see game on TV? Just log in from work, and access the DVR scheduler.

• If you’re coming home early, or (better yet) extending your vacation another week, use remote access to adjust lighting and climate control schedules.

Halfway across the Pacifi c Ocean we remembered what we forgot: to turn down the thermostat. No worries. Dad’s sliding it down right now from his cell.

Ahhhhh... This is the (connected) life.

One system.That lights up faces all over the house.

Next Gen Digital TV and Music

Big media companies used to control TV and music. Now you do.

ConnectedLife.Home delivers digital entertainment to everyone in the family — wherever and whenever you want.

Pause your favorite TV show and resume it later in any system-connected room, away from the kids. Or let the kids watch two movies in two different rooms, all from the same Entertainment Center. Make a playlist and rock the house without touching a CD.

If that doesn’t make your face light up, the simplicity of it will.

• Record live TV and play it back later.

• Pause live TV and resume the program in a different room.

• Record and view separate programs simultaneously.

• Play DVDs with the integrated DVD player.

Music to your ears.With a simple click of the remote, you can play your favor-ite tunes throughout every connected room in your house – without missing a beat.

Build playlists, listen to your CDs, MP3s and even Internet radio when and where you want to.

Upload your entire music collection. Transfer music from your PC’s digital music library. Then search by album, artist, song title or genre.

Let nothing get in the way of your music.

Mom’s party mix. Mom’s a rocker from way back, and she knows how to put together a playlist. Dad sets the lights, Mom puts out the food. Everything’s ready for the guests to arrive.
