That story has already been beaten to death....lol.<p>Nest bought out Revolv - and then immediately ceased <i>all</i> sales.<p>They then kept the servers running for another 18 months, before announcing they were going to shut them down.<p>Revolv was an also-ran in the home automation stakes - speculation on my part, but there was probably a reason they got bought out instead of raking in the big bucks.<p>Let&#x27;s say they sold a few thousand units - do you really think it&#x27;s worth keeping it running indefinitely? A lot of those people have probably moved on.<p>I don&#x27;t have hard data to back this up - but I have a growing suspicion most of the people shrilly screaming the loudest on HN don&#x27;t actually even own a Revolv - the chances of them being one of those few thousand of couple is pretty small.
