Or Is Your Remote Controlling You?
What’s on TV? How am I supposed to know? I’m too busy watching my ESPN Ultimate Remote.
I mean, yeah, I call it a remote, but it’s so much more than that. The 2.2” color LCD not only shows me what channels I have to choose from – it’s also a Wi-Fi-equipped web browser, with one-touch access to sports scores and TV listings. It doesn’t just look like a little computer. It actually runs Windows CE, so it’s what you might call eminently hackable.
Every time I try to sit down and watch something on TV, I get distracted by the ESPN Ultimate Remote. If I’d known how addictive it was, I never would’ve bothered programming it to control my TV, DVR, DVD player, and home stereo. There’s pretty much only one more thing Audiovox could add to make it just about perfect: a TV.
