How many remotes do you have?  I have one for the TV, another for the DVD player, a third for the stereo, and yet one more for the VCR.  4 remotes = 1 crowded coffee table.  With the OmniRemote by Pacific Neo-Tek, I can clear my table and control every component of my entertainment system with my Visor.

Physical Specifications

The OmniRemote is a standard-size Springboard module, similar to the InnoPak/2V , with the exception of a small emitter that sticks out less than 3 mm above the Visor.  The OmniRemote is graphite in color and has a purple label that matches Pacific Neo-Tek's colors, and it can control components at much greater distances than the Visor's internal Ir can.

Usability

The OmniRemote installs two applications onto the Visor: Remote and Manual.  Remote is where all the action is, while Manual has full instructions for using OmniRemote.  I really like the fact that the user's guide is on the Visor, as it makes a complete package.  Most other software help is comprised of .PDF files that can only be read on a desktop computer, which does not help you when you are away from your desk.  When the OmniRemote is removed, the applications are also removed, while the remote data remains on the Visor.

Training the OmniRemote is somewhat easy.  First align the remote and the Visor so that the Ir Port is in front of the remote, then set the Mode to Training and then tap the button to be "trained."  You will then see an "Align your remote screen."  At this prompt, press the button on the remote -- you will hear a click.  Tap the screen on the Visor to go to the programming screen and then press the remote button once quickly; repeat for the remaining buttons.
