'According to the Thread Group, “millions of existing 802.15.4 wireless devices already on the market can run Thread with just a software enhancement."'

Too bad no home automation/gadget hardware manufacturer is ever inclined to bother updating old hardware, rather insisting on (re)selling new.  This is perpetually an issue with any sort of home automation over the past 10 years, and just look at how bad security is in the industrial scada/nuke networks to see how often those get software updated in the name of public safety.
