The digital display shows blue when the system is cooling a house, and red when it is heating. It also shows how long it will take to get to a desired temperature.

Wow, just what I've been looking for for years
This thermostat ranks way high on my "cool" factor. It seems to be everything I've been looking for in a thermostat for years. Even still, $250 is pretty steep. I wonder how long it'll be for competition and economies of scale to drive the price down to be affordable for those that could really appreciate the savings they tout the most.
