This, friends, is what happens when convergence is addressed correctly. Rather than asking to take yet another remote in the hopper, one developed by Phil Irey DVPRemote--a beautiful iOS app that allows your iPhone or iPod touch to act as the main control mechanism for any Roku set top box. The application itself has been floating around in the app store for a tick, but its just released version 2.0 that is really of interest. This build inaugurates a UI completely rebuilt, and in addition to providing standard Roku shuffle controls, actually goes beyond to make easier your evening. There's full integration with Netflix to support navigation automated Instant queue, full keyboard support for any screen that prompts you for text, direct navigation to you-you organize Channels, toolbars for channel added functionality within NetFlix and support for the new "Instant Replay", "Information", and "back" buttons. Indeed, it is also compatible with the Protocol of iOS 4 background operation. Head on past the break for a rousing and tap that iTunes link when you're ready to ditch your Apple Remote App and ways to part with $ 2.99.Update: Hey Android users--looks like lookin someone is ' for you, too. Check out Roku Remote over to your side.
