Steve Moore, a London-based networking audio video installer, has come up with a reasonably low-cost way to turn an iPhone into a universal remote. Using an application called AirRemote, which will be available via Apple's App Store after July 11 for $99, and a Global Cache communications box ($120-$150) that converts the iPhone's IP commands into infrared signals that can be read by home theater products. Moore says support for more devices is on the way, so keep your eyes peeled for this one.
