I believe Heathkit sells an RS-232 interface for X10 (a.k.a. PowerHouse,
Plug'n'Power, etc), which you can use with a II+ if you have a SuperSerial
or similar card.

I've also seen these units on sale at Fry's Electronics in Sunnyvale (CA).
I believe the box was actually marked "Apple II" (but it was just standard
RS-232).  I don't remember whether there was any software included.
