PC Mag has spoken: the ESPN Ultimate Remote ain’t all that. Mari was feeling good after a brief device intro at The Cable Show, but my pal (and fellow IU alumn) PJ tested the WiFi remote in an AV environment and has graced it with only 2 out of 5 stars:
The problem is, despite its $300 price tag, it is not particularly simple to set up or use, and it doesn’t execute any of its fancy Web tricks gracefully.
Though PJ prefers the Harmony One, he’s hopeful that the Windows CE-based Ultimate Remote will see some software improvements that justify the steep price of entry.
