Logitech Harmony Link now shipping

Remember the Logitech Harmony Link that we reported about last week? Well if you’ve been waiting to get your hands on it, we’ve got some good news for you. Logitech has announced on its official blog that the tablet/smartphone accessory for your TV room is now on sale. In case you’re unfamiliar with the Logitech Harmony Link, it’s basically a device that transforms your smartphone or tablet into a full-featured remote control for your entertainment system.

Consisting of a tiny circular receiver, users download an app onto their mobile device and use WiFi to communicate with it. Commands from the phone/tablet and then converted into infrared signals that are sent out to the appropriate devices depending on the instruction. I.e. If you choose to listen to music, it will send instructions to your HiFi system, while if you want to watch a movie, your TV and Blu-ray player will receive commands instead. No more need to have multiple remote controls or even having to point to the right direction.

The Logitech Harmony Link is available on the Logitech online store and will set you back $99.99. Watch a video of it in action:
