The whole concept is starting with the idea of 'SMART Meters' - electric/gas meters that are intelligent enough to both feed back meter reads to the supplier, but also will soon be able to be integrated, along with the rest of the house, with wi-fi/smartphone technology that will allow people to turn the heating up at home while they're still at work so that when they reach home, the house is already warm. Connecting it all into fridges, cookers, televisions, etc is merely the next logical step. Even curtains - so even when you're backpacking around SE Asia for 3 weeks you can still make it seem you're at home by turning lights on, closing curtains, and playing your home hi-fi system all from your phone or a web connection far far away! Whether this is all A Good Thing or not, hah the jury's still out on that one ... As for ready-to-eat hard-boiled eggs ... I'm still flustered by the fact you can get (and have been able to for quite some time) packets of ready-chopped onions and pre-mashed potato (not mashed potato powder, actually ready-mashed potato!), amongst other things. You can also buy 'full english breakast' (egg, sausage, bacon etc) in a tin. The mind truly boggles ... Self-ordering fridges are the future, even here in the UK.

Already beaten eggs inside a carton just like the milk one. They were called "egg beaters"... 'cause, you know, breaking the eggs yourself is such a HUGE task!! :P Yeah, we saw those in the USA too.
