Harmony by Logitech has made some of the best universal remotes, but this latest product turns smartphones and tablets into univeral remotes. The product comes in two parts: Harmony Link hardware and the Harmony Link app. The hardware comes as a disc that is placed near the user's entertainment system and serves as the link between the new controller and the equipment via local WiFi. The backside of the disc has tiny IR blasters that can control the cable box, TV, and A/V hardware. Logitech claims that the Harmony Link can replace up to eight remote controls.
Meanwhile, the app turns the iPad into a Harmony universal remote.
