It's also about the convenience.
My wife often leaves outdoor lights on so it would be nice to just use my phone to turn them off instead of getting out of bed, going downstairs and turning them off.
I'm sure there will be WiFi enabled light sockets soon that you can put between the bulbs and the light fixture to help with this.
you can do this now with home automation systems (Zwave). also, wireless things behind the socket, that is going to be a pain in the ass to replace when it fails.
