Yeah it's pretty sweet...it even supports multi-touch! It can be a tad laggy at times, but not so bad that it's unusable. Pretty spiffy...no idea what it'd be useful for, but pretty spiffy nonetheless

A few people on the site mentioned it'd be good for a HTPC, and I happen to agree there. I can't see too many other uses, but as a HTPC remote, that'd be great! Albeit at a steep price tag for a remote control.. heh..

The problem with using it as an actual remote is that it goes to sleep after awhile (unless you set it to "On", which drains the battery and lights up the room). Then you have to unlock. Plus no tactile feedback. It's cool but not very practical, hehe.

I use a Wiimote with Darwiin for my remote :laugh:

That'd be sweet for an HTPC remote. It'd be neat to have it not only for that purpose though. It's your phone, it's your calendar, it's your portable music player, it plays movies, it does the internet, email, AND it controls your HTPC!
