Proximis NetRemote: Turn Your Pocket PC Into a WiFi Universal Remote
Posted by Pat Logsdon in "SOFTWARE" @ 05:05 PM
"With NetRemote, Windows users are able to browse their PC's music by artist, genre, playlist, title or even by album cover, adjust the volume, and let the music play from anywhere in their house via the their wireless network. What's more, if your Pocket PC has an IR transmitter, the application turns your handheld into a universal learning remote that can take advantage of the thousands of Philips Pronto CCF files to instantly control all of you home A/V gear."
No doubt some of you have used your Pocket PCs for evil, surreptitiously switching from SoapNet to the MonsterTruck Channel. For only $19.99, you can choose NetRemote IR, which will let your Pocket PC control IR devices. OR, you can choose (for $19.99) NetRemote LE, which will control your media player via WiFi. Or if you're really wild and crazy, you can spend another 10 spot to get both wrapped up in one package in the guise of NetRemote Pro, which throws in home automation control, Wake-On-Lan support, and a bunch of other cool stuff. Oh, and it looks like they've got iTunes support "coming soon". Anyone interested in this?
