I think this is a great idea, and would be really useful for any place where you need to give a lot of people access to the building. If you're renting your home out through Airbnb, being able to give people temp access to your home would be really convenient and also safer than giving them a physical key that they can copy. If you're renting out an apartment or office, lockitron will save the landlord from having to rekey the building after each tenant. The $150 cost is easily recouped if you consider the cost of getting new locks. When I'm expecting the maid to come over to my house, I would love to give them remote access if I'm not home.
I'd expect the look of the lock to change substantially with updates, but the conveniences it brings is pretty amazing.
