Motorola NYXboard Takes on TiVo Slide
Posted in: motorola, qwerty, remote control, Today's Chili, TV
The living room wars move on to the remote control. Motorola takes on TiVo Slide with NYXboard, its own version of the keyboard remote control.
The NYXboard remote packs in a compact QWERTY-keyboard on the back of its standard cable box remote. Sensors recognize which side is facing up and deactivate the side not in use. No more worrying about accidentally changing the channel while using the keyboard side of the remote!
The remote controls both the cable TV set-top box and the television set.
Motorola is expected to make the remote available by the end of the year, but it will be up to the individual cable companies as to whether customers will actually receive the keyboard remote with their cable TV boxes.
