PHILIPS iPRONTO HOME REMOTE

MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE
Philips' master controller doesn't just pause the VCR or crank up the volume on the sound system. No, with built-in wi-fi networking, it can surf the Web, stream MP3s, and — with the right accessories — allow you to open garage doors and turn on sprinkler systems without getting off the couch. It gives new meaning to the word "remote." $1,700
