bostonidealist's Journal: Apple HomePlug AV2 + HomeKit Combo Devices?

Given that Apple is building a large structure outside of the Flint Center ahead of next week's event, perhaps they'll demo one or more devices that combine HomePlug AV2 (perhaps with some proprietary Apple wrapper protocol) and HomeKit home automation functionality. It would make sense that they'd want to showcase a "connected home" with simple devices that extended wired and wireless networks while letting users turn lights and other devices on an off wirelessly. The proliferation of wireless devices is placing an increasing strain on private, residential Wi-Fi, especially when wireless video and music streaming is involved. Powerline networking would help address this issue. The Airport Express, AppleTV, and Mac mini still haven't been updated to 802.11ac, and these devices are all designed to remain stationary (unlike iPads, iPhones, etc.), so perhaps Apple would focus on powerline vs. wireless networking for these, too?
