The Gear4 UnityRemote ($99) is a great idea for an iPhone integrated device. Replace all your clunky remotes sitting around to change the channel, pause the movie, switch songs on the stereo, and shut off your lady’s incessant whining, you can use this one simple tool on your iPhone to make it all happen.

Place the Unity Hub anywhere in the room so that it can pick up signals from your iPhone, and you’ll have a universal remote.  Yet another reason to become inseparable from your iPhone.
