Nintendo doesn't exactly advertise it, but the remotes for the Wii gaming console—including the balance board that comes with Wii Fit—have Bluetooth capabilities. That means you can connect your Wii peripherals to your computer to operate the media center hooked up to your TV, play emulated games with a Nunchuk, Classic Controller, or even a Balance Board, and pretty much have them do anything you can do with a keyboard. Let's walk through linking up ...

What better way to inform someone you are going to sue them than to let this remote control lawyer do the job. You can program in whatever phrase you like in addition to the stock phrases he comes with and play them at a push of a button on the briefcase remote control. He comes complete with a spiked collar and a crushed victim just to let people know who they are messing with. When ...

Interstellar space flight may have been poo-poo'd on by astrophysicists this week, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little pseudo space-faring fun with this first-of-its-kind RC Star Trek Enterprise. Due to arrive in May 2009, the $80 foam flyer is controlled via a vintage Star Trek touchscreen communicator (Captain James T. Kirk womanizing is not necessary, but recommended). You charge the RC Enterprise with a=the tricorder-shaped charger seen above (sorry, no space dock ...

There are no plans to support it in future either.Remote'EmAll is still in beta, ...

Perhaps the biggest disconnect in the digital landscape today is between the Internet and the TV set. Consumers have been buying big, new high-definition TVs in large numbers and, separately, are watching more and more video from online sources like YouTube, Hulu and iTunes. But the two trends have yet to merge. Despite the efforts of big names like Microsoft (MSFT), Apple (AAPL) and TiVo (TIVO), relatively few people are watching Internet video on their ...

For a cool $1000, you can buy the Sonos Bundle 150 and wirelessly play music from a single remote control in two separate rooms in your house. On the other hand, for about $100 or less if you've already got the right equipment, you can get the same functionality from your iPhone or iPod touch. Let's take a closer look at how to use the iTunes Remote application for the iPhone 2.0 with inexpensive equipment ...

By Jonathan Kimak Although it’s a minor thing in the grand scheme of life, the remote losing power can be rather annoying. And despite our pressing the buttons harder, the channels eventually stop changing and we go looking for some fresh batteries. Now there’s a battery-free remote control that eliminates the need to ever get off our butts ever again. Online store Gizoo sells a universal remote control that uses wind-up power to charge itself. ...

I have always enjoyed feeding ducks when traveling. The ducks are so cute, so needy, and it is fun to throw them some bread and watch them picking up speed towards the potential meal. They look so cute in the water that I sometimes wished for some further interaction, as we usually have with our different pets like cats and dogs. I do not mean to necessarily swim by them, but that wouldn’t be a ...

Whether you're missing a crucial file at work or home, or you just need to tweak one little setting to get Mom's email working again, having remote control of another desktop can be seriously handy. But not everybody can walk the less-tech-inclined through installing a VNC server and opening up their router ports, or have the time to create their own SingleClick tech support tool (cool as it may be). Today, we're looking at the ...
