Sounds good, how do you do that?

Also if you have any good scripts for using the Sonos TTS/Say command, and they’re reasonably generic, it would be great if you could share them on the Creating Dynamic Messages post (http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/topic,12408.0.html)

Sorry for a late answer (been on a 3 week vacation in Thailand).

By using the two android-apps Llama and HomeAuthomation.

Llama can start/trigger programs based on location without using GPS(which sucks battery).
HomeAuthomation app which can expose vera scenes as shortcuts with can be triggered from Llama.
