First Look: Wi-Fi Remote with Weather, News, On-Remote Guide

Thanks to Wi-Fi, Acoustic Research's ARRU449 puts more than the power of entertainment into your hand.


If you’re like me, it’s hard to sit through another depressing newscast just to get to the weekend weather. Stupid Red Sox!



Now instead of having to relive those not-so-magical sports (and other) moments, I can make my own highlight reel right on the Acoustic Research ARRU449 remote control. The unit has built-in wireless Wi-Fi technology, which uses your broadband connection to stream sports scores (oh, the agony!), weather and other headlines, as well as a list of what looks good on your local channel lineup.
