Interesting Snippets

the AGA iTotal Control uses cell phone connectivity to enable users to control it from a remote location. Those with access to a laptop, tablet or smartphone while they are away from home will be able to interact with the cooker using an app which mimics the layout of the control panel on the stove…. Each unit has its own SIM card, and therefore phone number, which users can text with commands — including ‘roasting oven on’, ‘all ovens on’ and ‘all zones off’ — in order to control its functions. A text message reply confirms that the prompt has been successful. The iTotal Control is available in stores in the UK and internationally for GBP 10,090, but those looking to use the text message function will also need to pay an extra GBP 5.95 per month for line rental.
