Relay Pro (relaypro.com) is launching a beta for API access to our Relay device. I figured some of you might be interested in signing up and trying it out. Relay is a small portable cellular connected button with API access to GPS, LED Lights, Microphone & Speaker. It's rugged and durable, waterproof and drop resistant. Beta access is free for the first 3 months ($149/year after that).

Stuff you can use it for: Control other cloud connected IoT devices (doors, fans, thermostats), Create a doorbell in a remote location (ask to record their name so you know who's there), Voice search against a cloud database, Audible/LED alerts when thresholds are triggered (think pager with Siri)

If you're interested, you can sign up for early access to the REST API here: https://relaytalk.typeform.com/to/wqJLhY

(We're adding folks in waves, the first one starts in June)

Let me know if you have any questions or just feedback in general!
