Remember SideShow? That technology designed for Vista that allows you to display gadgets on an external device? Silver PAC is digging it up for their Evolution 550 universal remote set for release this February.
Features Include:
* 4.3 inch touch-color LCD display with a resolution of 480 x 272
* ARM9 processor
* 1GB flash
* 256MB SDRAM
* Built-in speaker and microphone
* 3-axis motion sensor
* Ambient light sensor
* Capacitive buttons
* Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R2
* Microsoft Media Center support
* Support for 100 devices
* Activity and learning function
* Rechargeable 3760 mAh battery
* Firmware upgrade and rechargeable from mini-USB
* 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi
* Z-Wave
* Photo Sync from live.com
No word on pricing yet, but I’m sure it’s not going to be cheap. Kind of absurd really, when you consider that a smarpthone and a standard remote can handle much of this functionality (not to mention an inexpensive HTPC). [SIlver PAC via Krunker]
