iPhone As Universal Remote!

Never lose your remote control again!  The new L5 IR Dongle turns your iPhone into a universal remote control that can be used for any IR device!  This is awesome because I don’t want to buy the gigantic remote and I am sick of digging around in the couch, under the couch, or inside my sons toy box for the remote when I just want to sit back relax and watch some T.V. or when the season premier of Lost is starting and I cant find the remote to change the channel!

There have been numerous apps before that turn your device into a remote for your computer or your Direct TV DVR but those devices work over wifi and most home entertainment devices are still being controlled by infrared.  This IR dongle will allow to truly have full control of all your devices via your iPhone!

This $50 item is definitely worth the dough and it comes with the free iPhone app that allows you to program your remote and you can also drag and drop the buttons around until you are happy with the layout.

So sit back relax and control your world with your iPhone :)
