The ThinkFlood RedEye Universal Remote Control peripheral that will cater for both the iPhone and iPod touch is pretty nifty – it comprises of a tiny IR transmitter box that boasts Wi-Fi connectivity, as well as an integrated dock to juice up your iPhone, iPhone 3G or iPod touch. All you need to do is download the RedEye software application to the respective device before you can get hooked up to the RedEye transmitter via Wi-Fi, where you’re good to go then. This would enable you to gain control of virtually all IR-sensing home entertainment equipment straight from the application itself, where device-specific screens that display relevant buttons show up to make your task easier. The software might be in public beta now, but it does boast macro shortcuts for added convenience. The RedEye Universal Remote Control solution for the iPhone and iPod touch will retail for $119.
