The IPic is a TCP/IP stack in hardware, along with a web server built in. That should allow us to turn on a coffee machine, program a VCR, or cook dinner from our computers, whether at home or via the Internet. Technical documentation is available from the above web site. I just discovered the web site by reading about it in a different mailing list (that is, I had nothing to do with its design, mind you). Fascinating...
