if you look to your left you’ll see what appears to be a normal remote control with an LCD. But that assumption is incorrect. The Acoustic Research Wi-Fi universal remote syncs with your DVR, DVD player, receivers and any other component you have in your entertainment center.
That’s not that big of a deal, right? How about news, weather and sports headlines being beamed to the remote so you can view on the LCD? It even comes with its own charging cradle. The ARRU449’s electronic program guide automatically updates through Wi-Fi so you can continue to watch TV, but browse for other stuff to watch on the LCD.
It also reminds you of when your favorite program is about to come on and the aforementioned news, weather, sports and programming is based on your zip code. Look for it next month for $399.99.
