Got a Phillips Hue Bulb - What Hub Should I Get?

I don't know why I didn't know that I needed another gadget to be able to use the Phillips Hue bulb that I got for Christmas. Ultimately, I will want to have Indigo be the main controller of all of my home automation things, so I guess I need some kind of hub that Indigo can communicate with?

Wink? Smart Things? Phillips Hue Bridge? Are these my options?

Recommendations?

Nothing but the Hue Bridge will do. Literally. Check eBay for the hub, as sometimes it's cheaper to buy multiple starter kits just for the bulbs and people put the spare hubs up at a discount.

Is that because of the integration to Indigo? Or do the other hubs not fully support the Philips Hue bulb?

First, because a Hub is required to make the bulb function as more than an ordinary light bulb.

Second, because Indigo talks to the hub, not to the bulbs.
