[slim] What's the best remote device moving forward?

I have a Controller, which unlike some I really do like - except for the wimpy battery life. I've also used a Nokia N770 with the Nokia skin. I liked that (the Nokia has great battery life but the skin seems not to be as up to date). With the bunch of new multi-capable remote devices out there

Re: [slim] What's the best remote device moving forward?

iPad. If you just use it for remote control and let it sleep between activities it will likely last a week. There's nothing else I have that comes even close WRT battery life. Oh, except for an IR remote, of course. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote, at

Re: [slim] What's the best remote device moving forward?

I suspected it would be something with an i in front of it. Right now, though, getting an iPad would be sort of overkill for me. I already have a couple of lightweight PC notebooks. I'd need a pretty good reason to get more functionality out of an iPad when I already have those, to think about

Re: [slim] What's the best remote device moving forward?

you asked for it... If you use a phone and disable the phone part of it it could also help a bit. Don't know about Android (never tried to turn off cellular on that one) but on my iPhone it lasts significantly longer with only WiFi than an iPod touch with WiFi so I assume it has a bigger battery.

What do you mean by multi-capable remote devices? Multi-touch? What kind of phone do you have? As already mentioned, there are great solutions for iPhone and Android. Personally, I would lean against the N800. I like the device, but it just doesn't seem to have much inertia behind it -
