EXAMPLE USAGES:

- You have child that likes using the Mac, a lot. Sometimes too much. Its dinner time in 15 minutes. First you send the Mac a message stating "Dinner in 15 minutes. The Mac shuts down in 10." Then you send a shutdown command to execute in 10 minutes. 15 minutes later child shows up for dinner.

- Theres an Excel file on your Mac you want to bring with you to a meeting, but you dont want to lug your Mac around. Instead you copy it to your iPhone using WiFiControl, and view the file on your iPhone while at the meeting. You get the contract.

- Theres an important lunch at noon, and you dont want to forget. You set WiFiControl to send yourself a message at 11:45. Lunch was good.

- Youre at a co-workers office, longer than you thought, and you forgot to log out of your Mac. No need to run back to your office and log out. Instead use WiFiControl. Co-worker is impressed.
