ABOUT:

If you've connected a computer to your TV, you're probably loving the Internet on the big screen. But you're probably also a bit put off by having to keep a keyboard and mouse lying around your sofa. HippoRemote is the answer you've been looking for.

HippoRemote turns your iPhone or iPod Touch into a wireless keyboard, trackpad & remote control, with customized controls for a whole slew of programs (Boxee, XBMC, Windows Media Center, iTunes, and all your favorite web browsers to name a few).

With HippoRemote, you have the best of both worlds — A remote when you only need a few buttons and a full keyboard & mouse when you need more control.


KEY FEATURES:

* The best trackpad implementation on the iPhone/iPod Touch, with Multi-Touch Gestures and Circular Scrolling for 1-finger (or 1-thumb) operation.

* The best keyboard implementation available, with Keyboard History (it's like the address bar in your browser, but for anything you type) and Landscape Orientation support.

* App Profiles - It's like having a universal remote for all the programs on your computer.

* Auto App Switching - Launch/switch programs simply by switching profiles. (*)

* Login & Password Manager - One touch sign-in to your favorite web sites and services.

* Macros - Automate tasks by recording your own sequences of shortcuts.

* Unicode support - Use HippoRemote to enter text in Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Russian, or any other iPhone supported language. (*)

* Wake-on-LAN and Wake-on-Wireless support - Now you can be lazy and turn on your computer from your couch.

* Connects via VNC - HippoRemote will work with any device that supports RFB (the VNC protocol).


REQUIREMENTS:

Mac - No additional software necessary. Just enable Screen Sharing in the System Preferences, enter a password and you're good to go.

PC - Install any of the popular, free, and open source VNC programs like RealVNC, UltraVNC, or TightVNC.

Linux - Works out-of-the-box with all major distros (VNC is generally included by default).
