There's one alternative now at $179, I think (Envi). It's a terribly limited product, and requires a connection inside the breaker panel. Their newly release connection (to Google PowerMeter) seems "gangly" and is still in early release.
BlueLine has the non-connected version (meter connection and display) for $99. But this is only part of the equation, and they have been beating that horse for many years. The new WiFi connected device is OK, but brings the price up to parity with Wattvision, with far more components, and complexity.
