Apple updates $19 Remote, predictably coats it in aluminum
Posted in: Apple, iPhone, ipod, Mac, remote, Today's Chili
Apple’s Remote — which it stopped throwing in with its MacBook Pro machines awhile back — has also seen a refresh today, ditching the iconic glossy white vibe now associated with the company’s lower-end consumer machines and instead donning an all-aluminum coat to match the Mac Pro, MacBook and MacBook Pro range. As always, it’s designed to control your iPod, iPhone or Mac from afar, with play / pause, menu, volume and track skip buttons at the ready. If you’re looking to use it with your iPod or iPhone, you’ll need an iPod Universal Dock ($49) and a device with a dock connector; if you’re using it with your Mac, you’ll need a compatible machine introduced in 2005 or later with an integrated IR receiver. It’ll ship in two to four weeks for $19.
