Salling Clicker - Use handheld devices as Mac remotes
Authored by: Fofer on Sep 16, '04 03:19:41PM

True but the Keyspan doesn't have onscreen VISUAL FEEDBACK like Salling Clicker does. The minute I was able to browse through all of iTunes playlists on a Zire 72, search for songs, start playing music as well as keep tabs on the upcoming songs...

...not to mention control a iPhoto slideshow (and see thumbnails of the displayed pic on the Zire screen!) I knew I had to register this damn fine application.

Comparing it to a simple laser pointer/remote control that happens to connect via Bluetooth is (ahem) selling Salling Clicker short. One is an impressive hack job, the other is brilliant technology convergence.

Salling Clicker - Use handheld devices as Mac remotes

I would do anything to have a remote for my computer. I don't believe my iMac has the ability. I never would have guessed there were so many possibilities. They all sound really good. Rob, great idea to go to Oregon. You never know what you could discover. :) cheers (like everyone else), brita (gourls)

Use infrared devices as Mac remotes and vice versa

Please have a look at iRed if you are looking for a decent infrared solution. Compared to Keyspan it can not only receive but also send infrared codes. So controlling your audio/video devices is a snap.
