DEPENDENCY:
pySerial

MUST CHANGE:
Remote_AC.py -- device locations. Yours are probably named something else.

GETTING STARTED
1) install django: https://www.djangoproject.com/download/
   (apt/synaptic/package manager might only have version 1.2, this needs 1.3+ so use the above link)
2) if necessary, install pySerial: 
    * http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyserial
    * sudo python setup.py install
3) go to the MobileAC directory 
4) create the initial database: python manage.py syncdb
5) run the server: python manage.py runserver
6) go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/1/
7) enjoy
