David-Chacon-Universal-Remote.jpg

What if you could control everything in your home with a little handheld gadget? That's what this universal remote by David Chacon got us thinking about, with its roomy screen — a nerve center right in your pocket.

Simply called the Universal Remote, the device would be flash capable so it could display anything from channel listings to more elaborate menus. With a touchscreen, the right frequencies and support from outside companies, the remote would allow you to change your television's volume to turning on the oven or dimming the lights — and companies could create custom graphic user interfaces for a product, too.

Check out the gallery below for more views of the universal remote.

Custom interface are great... But learning a different interface to turn my lights on and off, and then having to learn another for my oven and tv, windows, ........ would get kind of old.

There is already a device like this on the market... you may have heard about it already... its called an iPhone... simply write the program.. why reinvent the wheel over and over and over again to simply come up with the same concept!?

PS: and the iPhone already fits in your pocket ;-)

I LOVED my Pronto TSU1000 when first came out and then I HATED my Pronto when I just wanted to fast forward or something. Big and bulky and always required me to look down to do anything. Harmony took care of this and is perfect for an all-in-one. Too much GUI and you lose ease of use and practicality.

Simplistic design pron gets old and I see no reason to consider this anything but.
