Overview
Apple Remote with iPod and iPhone
If you connect your iPod to a home stereo, powered speakers or TV set, the Apple Remote lets you experience your songs, slide shows and more from across the room. Plug your iPod into the Universal Dock and choose a play list, slide show or video. Then sit back, relax and enjoy. Ready to move on to the next song? No need to get up. Just press the Next button on the Apple Remote. Getting a call on your iPhone? Press Pause, then pick up where you left off.
The Apple Remote requires the iPod Universal Dock and any iPod with a dock connector, or any iPhone.
Apple Remote with Mac
The Apple Remote gives you total command of your music, photos, videos and DVDs from anywhere in the room. It works with Front Row - a menu-based, full-screen interface - to make accessing the digital content on your Mac as simple as navigating your iPod. When you press the Menu button, your desktop fades and the sleek, Front Row interface takes its place, to give you control over your music in iTunes, your photos in iPhoto, the videos in your Videos folder and your DVDs. Turn up the volume. Shuffle. Skip to the next chapter on your DVD. Play a slide show, a home video that you made in iMovie, even a film trailer.
Compatible with Apple products introduced in 2005 or later that have a built-in infrared (IR) receiver.

Written by KN from Mississauga
23-Nov-2009
I just received this in the mail, and haven't even tried it on my new iMac yet. However, I can truly say that I don't care if this ever works with any of my Apple devices - this is the coolest, most incredible device to simply hold in your hand. This product gets top marks for industrial and ergonomic design. Who cares if it works... I just like carrying it around... …More

Would love to see clickwheel work

Overall, a simple but responsive remote. Would be more perfect if the clickwheel is not just the design.

Apple Remote
Much Improved
Written by WM from MISSOULA
17-Nov-2009
A lot better than the old plastic remote which would get lost in my hands. The new remote has a slight heft and a much better feel. The buttons are much more responsive and the overall look is great. $15 dollars would be a better price but $19 is worth it since it will probably last many years! …More
