Back on show #153 I interviewed Melloware about Intelliremote, an advanced remote control solution for Media Center. Now Melloware have updated
Intelliremote so you can control Windows Media Center from an iPhone or a iPod Touch. So if you have either devices you may as well make use of as a remote for Media Center. The application is available from the iPhone AppStore and is free to existing Intelliremote PC application.
Features:
- Complete control of all your Windows applications from your iPhone.
- No “line-of-sight” needed to control your Home Theatre PC which may be stored in a closet or somewhere esle out of the way in your house.
- While Apple has provided an iPhone remote for ITunes…what about the rest of us that don’t use ITunes but want to control our media center PC?

Update:
The app is still “Under Review” from Apple but should be release to the
AppStore any day now.

Thanks for posting Ian. The app is still “Under Review” from Apple but should be release to the AppStore any day now. It’s my one major complaint against Apple is that they are reviewing every single application before they post it to AppStore.
