[Hai-users] Z-Wave and Omni

The Application Guide is not out yet per my distributor.

Tom Morgan at Worthington would be the best to ask about Z-wave/HAI
integration, but I assume he is at EHX in Orlando this week.

The new Levtion ViziaRF wall pads (area and scene controllers) are going to
be a great way to do lighting control.  They are just reaching the market
now.
