Product Description:
Box Contents: Apple Remote, Battery (CR 2032), User Guide
With the Apple Remote, you can take control of your digital entertainment from anywhere in the room. Simply connect your iPod to a home stereo or a speaker system, and experience songs, slideshows and more from across the room. Just plug your iPod into the Universal Dock and choose a playlist, slideshow or video. Ready to move on to the next song? No need to get up from your sofa–just press the forward button on the Apple Remote. Phone ringing? Just click pause, then pick up where you left off.
The Apple Remote also works with the new iMac G5. It combines with Front Row — a menu-driven, full-screen interface — to make accessing your iMac’s digital bounty from any seat in the room as simple as navigating your iPod. When you click the Apple Remote’s Menu button, your desktop fades and Front Row’s sleek interface takes its place to give you control over your music in iTunes, your photos in iPhoto, the videos in your Movies folder and whatever DVDs you want to play. Just sit back and enjoy the show.

Customer Reviews

It’s just a remote by Manuel Aponte Galindo
First of all I bought it knowing that the menu button does nothing with the Ipod Classic 80G, second I already had the Universal Dock when I bought it. Ok having that In mind the remote does what it is supposed to do, fast forward, rewind, play/pause, volume and that’s it.

It looks good and does what I need of it.

Apple remote = great!!! by Sridevi C. Rao
This product is very good especially for lazy people because you don’t even have to move to adjust the volume or change the song playing on your mac!!! It’s wonderful! All my friends are jealous that their pc’s don’t have remotes!!!!

Very limited functions by J. Buhrman
This remote, along with the Apple Universal Dock required for my Ipod classic offers very restricted control of the Ipod.

You cannot use it to select any videos, music, photos or any other menu of the Ipod.

You have to use the Ipod click wheel for everything except volume up and down, play or pause, and forward or reverse a pre-selected playlist or video.

I was planning to replace my 300 disc CD player with the Ipod, but not anymore. I have much more remote control of the CD player then the Ipod ever offers, including on / off, select any disc.

Completely And Utterly Useless iPod Remote by The Information
This unit has a Menu button that does not function with the iPod. In fact, this remote does not allow you to navigate on the iPod at all!

If you were expecting a remote control for your iPod keep dreaming. The fact that Apple would attempt to sell this item to iPod owners is shameful.
