well i am your cheap blinds tour guide! 
i went with the low cost steve's blinds and i'm very very happy with them so far. if this movez contraption actually works i'm going to be ecstatic.
tigerwise is right though (a-hole) in that the nice thing about the lutron serena is it hides the motor in the bezel over the shade so you dont see the metal chain at all. but i'm talking less than $500 for 3 huge windows vs. $3000+ for serena.

CAD..............I just dont like you right now.
You did all that research on which Zwave switch is better and convinced me that the Lutron switch is the best (well i looks the best to me), So i went with them. My whole house that i wanted automated 20 something switches.
Well as you know im switching from Wink 1 to Smartthings and come to find out, the lutron switches are not compatible with STs (without a lutron bridge because the signal isnt really Zwave). really WTF. How can a small unknown shitty company like WINK who has almost gone under a couple time have the ability to natively connect to the Lutron network yet the Mr. Big Dick Samsung cant. And only just now got them integrated with the required 100$ lutron bridge.
Lucky for you i was browsing ebay last night and saw a 100 OBO for the Lutron bridge pro. and i offeres 65$ and the guys accepted it. He must have really wanted to get rid of it. But if not for that i would be even more pissed at you.
Now i have to have my ST hub, next to my Lutron hub, next to my Hue hub, next to my Harmony hub. My Closet is almost hubed out.
