Philips Won't Block Third-Party Bulbs After All (engadget.com)
An anonymous reader writes: A day after Philips announced that it would drop support for third-party Hue bulbs the company has reversed its decision. An announcement reads is part: "We recently upgraded the software for Philips Hue to ensure the best seamless connected lighting experience for our customers. This change was made in good faith. However, we under estimated the impact this would have on a small number of customers who use lights from other brands which could not be controlled by the Philips Hue software. In view of the sentiment expressed by our customers, we have decided to reverse the software upgrade so that lights from other brands continue to work as they did before with the Philips Hue system."
You get really turned on by that talk don't you? Why don't you just admit it and come out of the closet? You'll be so much happier, you'll make new friends and, best of all, you'll finally be invited to do stuff with people. Good times!
