In short, the ZigBee standard gets its name from an idea engineers are hoping to emulate: the zigging and zagging of bees, which are individually simple organisms that work together to tackle complex tasks.
**********************************
The ZigBee Principle
**********************************
The domestic honeybee, a colonial insect, lives in a hive that contains a queen, a few male drones, and thousands of worker bees. The survival, success, and future of the colony is dependent upon continuous communication of vital information between every member of the colony. The technique that honey bees use to communicate new-found food sources to other members of the colony is referred to as the ZigBee Principle. Using this silent, but powerful communication system, whereby the bee dances in a zig-zag pattern, he is able to share information such as the location, distance, and direction of a newly discovered food source to its fellow colony members. Instinctively implementing the ZigBee Principle, bees around the world industriously sustain productive hives and foster future generations of colony members.

Sounds really interesting, no doubt about that. But to be widely spread it has to be well priced. I belive that one really big mistake with Bluetooth is the still quite expensive devices and equipments.
The free market and its money makes the rules. Lower the prices and the market will finally wake up.
When the masses really wants it and when they can easily afford it, then the success is a fact.
