Or if you move to a green tariff, or switch suppliers, some energy companies will send you a free one.

My father installed telephone line from house (about 200 m from garage port) so calling in when help was needed after a big shopping was easy to do;-) BTW our dog went crazy when the "garage phone" rang. Besides that the complete house had cabling for communication, phone. Radio in kitchen, bathroom, basement. Automatic heating, etc. All happened some 40 years ago without the smart internet stuff and twittering machines. Now my parents have moved up north to the Baltic Sea. Guess what? The story is repeating, this time with new high tech solutions and so on. My father still is looking for making life easier - especially as they do home exchange (for months) frequently.
