Brain scan: The podfather, part III | The Economist

Excerpt from a Tony Fadell (and Nest) profile
"Just as the iPod opened Apple’s eyes to new possibilities that eventually led to the iPhone and then the iPad, Mr Fadell is convinced that the thermostat can do the same for Nest Labs, and that it will be just the first of a series of smart, energy-saving devices. “This is not about creating random one-off products,” he says. “It’s about finding synergies between them and building a really long-term business.” He is coy about other areas the firm might tackle, but lighting is an obvious one."
