I also forgot, because its been sitting next to the cm11 in one of
those tripple wide duplex adaptors for years, is a receiver for the rf
output signals from the eagleeye or hawkeye PIR motion detectors.  Its a
X10 Powerhouse RR501.

This device also picks up the handheld keypad signals, so I can fire up
xmms, make it play, and even hit the reject to make it go to the next
song when I'm in the basement playing pool with the neighbors.
