Philips' CEDIA booth tour


Philips apparently came to CEDIA for one reason: to showcase its expanding remote control lineup. Yeah, we saw a digital photo frame and LCD every now and then, but this place felt more like the remote section in Circuit City than a typical booth. 'Course, we aren't griping or anything, so head on over to EngadgetHD for all the remote controlling you can handle.

Marantz's RC9001 touchscreen remote with WiFi extender


We saw a variation of this Philips TSU9600 at CES. Still, it's nice to see Marantz get official with their own VGA touchscreen remote: the TC9001. Like Philips' model, we expect this Marantz model to integrate with Escient Fireball media servers and Lutron RadioRa lighting controls for full multi-room control. It brings along an option for an RX9001 WiFi extender or RX8001 serial extender too -- right, just like Philips. The only difference appears to be the choice of UI which of course, can make all the difference in the world. Expect the Marantz RC9001 to ship sometime mid-September for right around $1,000.
