Okay, here's the deal with the iPronto...it's a IR remote that can 'surf the web' utilizing a wireless network within a home. So, here's where they get off stating that you can control RS-232, Contact Closure, etc...whether it's Crestron, AMX, or even now the Aurora WACI piece, you can create web pages that will trigger events within those systems, but viewed on your iPronto's Web Browser (or so they are banking on). WHAT A JOKE!!! Why not get a PC tablet and do the same thing? I personally don't see the value of having an IR remote\web browser. Philips was on the right track, but I think they fell a little short with this one. Maybe next generation will get it right. By the way, I just went to there website and looked at the pdf manual to see what it was all about.
