RCA Voice Control remote

RCA ups the ante when it comes to TV remote controls as this time round, the RCA Voice Control remote will listen to your every command (with the right accent, of course) and obey you unlike the kids and your dog. For example, speaking the command “Blu-ray” could kick off a macro that turns on the TV, power the Blu-ray player and receiver, while making sure all settings are optimized to provide the best viewing experience possible. Capable of controlling up to half a dozen components and handling a maximum of 25 user-programmable actions, this would be a boon for basic home theaters although those with more complex set-ups might end up being frustrated. Having said that, get this only if you want a novelty in your basic home entertainment system set-up, otherwise give it a miss and save yourself $39.99 in the process.
