The iconRemote is the revolutionary new universal remote that makes channel surfing a breeze.  The large, built-in LCD screen will actually display the logos from all of your favorite TV stations.  In seconds, you simply program each of your favorites into your own user profile, and from then on, you never have to waste time searching through unwanted channels again. 
 
−
<br><br>
 
−
The iconRemote is also extremely easy to use and navigate.  Large buttons, a bright LCD screen, and an ergonomic design will soon make this your favorite (and only) remote.
 
−
<br><br>
 
−
With 10 separate and customizable user profiles, including convenient His and Hers buttons, you’ll never have to argue about what to watch again.  Program up to 100 favorite channels for each user and switch between them at the push of a button.  You can even set up a Kid Safe profile for each child.  No more worrying about your kids accidentally switching to an adult channel.
 
−
<br><br>
 
−
This handy little remote can control up to 10 different devices - TVs, DVD Players, VCRs, Tivo, DVRs, Home Audio Receivers, CD Players – as long as your device came with a remote, the iconRemote can control it.  It even has a slot for Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2, just in case there’s something else you need to control.
 
−
<br><br>
 
−
The on screen wizard will walk you through the simple set up in minutes.  Simply select your brands and devices (Sony, TV) you want to control from the remote’s internal memory, and you’re iconRemote is ready to go.  You don’t even need a computer, because all of the codes for your remotes come programmed in.  And, if you come across a feature that isn’t already preprogrammed, your remote has an easy to use learning feature.  In mere seconds, teach your iconRemote any function you want.
 
−
<br><br>
 
−
The iconRemote also has macros.  With the patented smart macro capability you can push one button on the remote and activate your entire entertainment system. For example, one touch turns on the TV, DVD player, plays the DVD and turns on the surround sound.  It also has Quick Power which allows you to turn on all of your devices at once and Punch-through which allows you to set up various keys to control different devices, regardless of the mode.  For example, you might want volume to control your stereo receiver, whether you’re in TV, CD, or DVD mode.
 
−
<br><br>
 
−
And, with the iconRemote, there’s no need to recharge the batteries.  The 3 included AAs will last approximately one year and the remote will even “sleep” when you’re not using it, to save power.

ESPN, MTV, NBC - we all know the logos. With the iconRemote, rather than boring channel numbers, over 200 recognizable logos come up on the remote screen. Just hit the logo of the channel you want! You'll never have to memorize channels or worry about guests not knowing what channel ABC or TNT is! Fantastic!

Skip the hassle of skimming through channels you never watch! Each member of your family can program in up to 100 favorite channels, with 10 favorite logos showing at once on the LCD screen!

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus - the iconRemote actually understands that we have different needs. You only watch ESPN, CNN and NBC. Your wife, on the other hand, only watches the Oxygen channel and E! Entertainment. The iconRemote is easy to customize! When you hit HIS, only your favorite channels come up. When your wife hits HERS, only her favorites appear.

In the past, you would turn on the TV with one remote, get up to turn on the surround sound, then use another remote to turn on and play the DVD player. Not anymore! With the iconRemote, you can easily program it to do all this with one button. You can even set it to turn on the TV, wait two seconds, turn on the DVD player, wait another 10 seconds, then turn up the volume. It's one smart remote!
