The Beacon universal remote control system from Griffin Technology bridges the gap between your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad and your home theater equipment. Β Youβll install the Dijit remote control app from the iTuneβs app store and use Bluetooth to pair your iOS device to Beacon β no more tiny IR transmitters to plug into your iPhone. Β Then the Beacon will translate the Bluetooth signals into IR commands for your A/V equipment. Β The Dijit app has a large library of device codes already available to make setting up your remote easy, and there is a learn mode if you own a piece of equipment not in the database. Β Youβll be able to control individual devices or define activities that will do everything needed to watch a movie, for example. Β The Beacon is $79.99 from Griffin, and the Dijit app is free.
