But Can It Do The Dishes?

What if you could control everything in your home with a little handheld gadget? That’s what this universal remote by David Chacon got us thinking about, with its roomy screen - a nerve center right in your pocket.

Simply called the Universal Remote, the device would be flash capable so it could display anything from channel listings to more elaborate menus. With a touchscreen, the right frequencies and support from outside companies, the remote would allow you to change your television’s volume to turning on the oven or dimming the lights - and companies could create custom graphic user interfaces for a product, too.
