What We Like: 
The Dijit Universal Remote turns your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad into a universal remote when paired with Griffin Technology's Beacon.http://developer.netflix.com/
Why it's cool: 

With Dijit plus Griffin's Beacon, you can finally clean up your coffee table and put your extra remotes away in a drawer somewhere. Now your iPhone and iPad is your universal remote. At last your whole family and guests will be able to figure out how to control all the different devices and inputs you have in the living room! No need to squint at 73 identically shaped buttons on your multiple home system remotes -- now all you need is just one! You can even manage your Netflix instant streaming queue, TV recommendations from Facebook, and search YouTube video clips.
