The Tekkeon NavDock Home Media Center with On-TV Navigation for iPod/iPhone lets you navigate your iPod/iPhone through an on-TV menu to play videos, photos and music on a connected television.

The Tekkeon NavDock browses directly through your iPod/iPhone menus, so finding and playing music and videos is easy.
You can use the 16-button remote to adjust or mute volume, shuffle, repeat or skip songs, and fast forward or rewind through music or videos.
The remote offers a five-way navigation pad and quick keys that jump directly to the videos, photos, music or settings menus.

With Tekkeon NavDock, you have complete control. You can change the language, the menu color scheme to fit your mood, or the navigation speed to fit your taste. You can even access the equalizer or display the lyrics or album art that appears next to your songs in the Now Playing screen in motion as your personalized screensaver.

The graphic display that appears on your TV is very nice, both aesthetically pleasing and easy to read, with adjustable color backgrounds.

The remote gives you full navigation of your IPod: Playlists, Artists, Albums, Songs, Podcasts, Genres, Composers and Audiobooks. It also allows you to set your Equalizer just like on your IPod and basically shows about everything on your TV screen that your IPod display does.

The display on the TV screen will show you what is currently playing and you can set the screensaver to come on after various lengths of time. The title of the current song always scrolls across the album cover area. Yes, it shows album covers! And you can turn that feature on or off; just like the IPod Classic it works a little faster without the album cover display turned on but I prefer to see the album covers. Anyway, it’s nice to have the option.

The NavDock will play your videos and photos as well, though with photos you have to first navigate using the IPod display itself, instead of using just the display on the TV to navigate. This is the only time you ever have to look at your IPod itself when you have the NavDock connected. Everything else can be done with the NavDock remote: you can browse artists, genres, and albums and one nice feature is that the remote has a shuffle button right on it, so you don’t have to go into the menu to turn shuffle on or off.

Here are a couple of Universal Remote Control from Logitech that span most pro-am users’ needs when it comes to handle all our beloved HD gizmos.

Logitech Harmony 1100 Advanced Universal Remote Control: meet the Remote Control King!

The Harmony remote makes it easy for any family member to use the home-entertainment system without help – and start any activity with just one touch of a button. NO more navigating a variety of entertainment components with multiple remotes and/or a complicated sequence of commands, which often require a set of written instructions.

Logitech’s range of universal remote controls has been so well-received by the home cinema enthusiast market that the company has rapidly become the number one brand for programmable clickers. And with the high-end Logitech Harmony 1100 it’s easy to see why.

With its gloss black styling and 3.5in colour screen, it’s an exact replacement for the extremely popular Harmony 1000. The Logitech Harmony 1100 is similarly capable of controlling up to 15 separate items of kit (via IR or, with an optional extender, RF).

But the most impressive feature, one that rivals find impossible to match, is that the control codes for your equipment can be found and stored within seconds thanks to an ever-expanding online database with, so far, over 225,000 available.

Of course, you’ll need to hook up the remote to your computer and, subsequently, the internet, which may put off some, but the supplied software is so simple to use, that it shouldn’t take more than an hour to set up. And that includes macros (called ‘Activities’ here), too.

Be confident you can control whatever entertainment devices you have today or buy tomorrow. The Harmony 1100 works with more than 225,000 devices from 5,000+ brands – and the list grows every day.

The software, onscreen graphics and button layout have all been improved over the Harmony 1000 thanks to consumer feedback. The ability to set up Activities (sequences of events that switch on all of the relevant equipment) is a godsend. For example, tap ‘Watch TV’ and the screen, Freeview box and amp all start up automatically.

When used with the Harmony RF Extender (sold separately), the Harmony 1100 helps you control devices that you keep behind closed doors, even those you can’t see.

The Logitech Harmony 1100 is available now for US $286.83 so you Save $212.17 (that’s 43% off) so hurry up.

Tired of all the remote controls cluttering up your coffee table? Logitech wants to control your entire entertainment center with its Logitech Harmony 880 Advanced Universal Remote Control.

Lets face it, there’s a downside to the consumer electronics revolution. A proliferation of black or silver boxes that live under the omnipresent TVs bring with them a multitude of separate remote controls; one to change the volume of the stereo, one to turn on the TV, one to control the DVD player, another for the TiVo; the list goes on.

The Logitech Harmony 880 puts you in control of your entire audio-video system with just one button. It’s home entertainment the way it should be–simple.

This model is the culmination of the company’s influence and experience being put to the test in an effort to improve upon the past Harmony designs and ergonomics.

The remote’s LCD screen goes to sleep automatically, but is awakened “automagically” when the remote is picked up or when the GLOW button is pressed. The contrast is a bit high on the display, and it cannot be adjusted, but all text appeared to be reasonably easy to read. The Volume, Channel and Navigational buttons are quite easy to reach with the thumb and are very well laid out. Selecting from the eight activities or user controls via the LCD screen’s side buttons is also very easy to do,

There’s a saying that 2 is better than 1. When 2 can get together it’s special. The new JVC NXPN7 clock radio is very special. It accommodates two iPod players side-by side with its integrated dual-dock technology, charging them simultaneously and offering playback from each through the dock’s speaker system.
Supplementing iPod playback is an AM/FM tuner, and adding to the unit’s versatility is a clock and timer. In addition, there’s an analog audio input for connecting other devices for playback.
Though the JVC NXPN7 handles two iPod players, it measures a mere 13 inches wide and will fit almost everywhere.
It features sleek and sophisticated styling, with a black cabinet and speaker grille, and controls arrayed clearly and logically in a band along the bottom. Adding a bit of flair are two illuminated strips, one under each docked iPod.
These can display one of nine colors - including white, blue, red and others. The included remote control features dedicated iPod control keys that simulate the iPod control wheel layout, so users are able to easily shuffle, repeat, scroll and select songs from the iPod menu. Back illuminated LCD Analog audio input lets you add other MP3 players if you don’t have an iPod Remote Control (also controls iPod when docked)

In the end: dual dock, great sound, nice look and lots of features!
