IPhone is definitely more than just a phone. It has been used as portable music player, Internet device, GPS system, eBook reader, credit card terminal, and many more. The fact that iPhone, both hardware and software wise, is a very flexible device is making developers and manufacturers more eager to develop different added solutions for the gadget.
If you think you cannot use your iPhone as a universal remote control, this article will prove you otherwise. Meet Re Remote Control Accessory, an optional accessory created by New Kinetix for iPhone — and of course iPod Touch — users. This particular accessory screams coolness and great features for sure.
The Re Remote Control can be attached to the base of the iPhone. Once you plugged the device, your screen will show buttons similar to those of universal remote controls. You can now use your iPhone to control other devices such as your BluRay player or LCD TV instantly.
You can use the available extensive built-in IR Code database or use the device to learn new IR codes of existing remote controls. Since Re Remote Control can learn new codes, the possibilities are endless. As long as the hardware you want to control with Re Remote Control use IR-based remote control, you can easily make your iPhone learn the code in an instant.
Re Remote Control is probably the ultimate universal remote control solution. New Kinetix will be releasing this device at the upcoming CES 2010, so be prepared for future updates.
