It would make sense to be able to use a wifi-enabled handheld device to connect to the Slingbox and from there control the AV hardware with the existing IR blaster, if they can get the latency down. ]]>Jan 6th 2010 6:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/Which button do I press to bring up my Gmail Inbox ?

But Logitech needed this kind of competition. Paying $200-400 for a hand held remote with 2-3 year old technology is just wrong. I hope this new offering and the iPhone remote bring some sanity to smart remote pricing soon.]]>Jan 6th 2010 8:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/

I don't know about you, but the least upgrade happy people in the world are cable tv providers. My Cable box is no less than 6 years old, and last I checked (about 6 months ago) there is no new model for them to give me. I still have friends who can only get the old ScientificAtlanta digital cable boxes circa 1996. Look at Motorola's cable box offerings on their website. They have some major cool/useful DVR products including whole house DVR/DVR sharing and Comcrap and the rest of the a-holes over there won't implement them so they might as well not exist. ]]>Jan 6th 2010 12:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/Jan 6th 2010 12:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/Jan 6th 2010 12:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/Jan 6th 2010 2:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/Seems like all you can do is regurgetate what you have seen on ZatxNotFunny,]]>Jan 7th 2010 9:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/Jan 9th 2010 9:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sling-gets-in-the-remote-business-with-the-sling-touch-control-1/Jan 9th 2010 9:50PM
