The number of devices in the living room is on the increase – DVD, HDTV, cable or satellite box, CD Player, computer game centre and even home cinema system – so the desire to control everything from one remote is no longer a lifestyle choice but a necessity.

However, consumers are wary of the initial setup and controls according to One For All, the home electronics experts -  http://www.oneforall.co.uk

So, they’ve made it simple – the new XSIGHT sets itself up using its touch screen control device.

It’s so easy to set up your XSIGHT remote control. For a start, there is no manual to confuse you! All you have to do is select your language and follow the prompts on screen. Choose to set up the remote on your XSIGHT or PC then set the time, select the device type, e.g. HDTV or satellite box and your device brand e.g. Sony, Panasonic, Philips, then confirm. And you’re ready to start. It’s the easiest, most comprehensive set up ever seen.

If for any reason your device type is not listed, use the USB to connect to your PC and go to One For All’s special website – www.ez-rc.com – for more device types.

To explore everything that the XSIGHT has to offer, connect your remote to your PC and install the CD-Rom supplied. This connects you to One For All’s remote control set up wizard website. Once set up, the shortcut keys will give you access to Favourites, Profiles and Activities.

XSIGHT allows you to add your personal style and flavour to your remote.

Favourites gives you the ability to programme up to 72 favourite channels from a country-specific channel line up. The chosen favourites are then shown in the display as full colour graphic buttons complete with channel logos.

Profiles means that the XSIGHT can assign favourites to specific profiles and pictures for each family member – or each type of programme, such as sport, movies or music. Up to six profiles can be created.

Note: the Profiles function will be available from April 2009 via www.ez-rc.com.

The Activities button provides easy access and control of your viewing and listening habits, for example: watch TV, watch movie, play music. To watch a DVD, for example, a number of individual actions normally need to be performed from selecting channel AV1 on the TV and DVD Input on the home cinema system to switching on the DVD player and pressing ‘Play’. The XSIGHT simply carries all these functions out for you at the single touch of a button. Indeed, it can store up to 12 activities of this kind.

And if this wasn’t enough, the Favourites, Profiles and Activities functions can also be combined. For example, in Movie mode, the sound can be played over the surround system, whilst in the ‘Kids’ profile the TV’s own speakers are activated. New functions can be assigned to keys and softkeys in the display, complete with personalised names and icons.

With this wealth of possibilities, XSIGHT is the ultimate entertainment control centre for your home.

The XSIGHT remote controls will be available in the UK from major electrical retailers and online at Argos.

The XSIGHT Colour is priced £99.99 and the XSIGHT Touch is £129.99. Visit http://www.oneforall.co.uk for more information.

Everyone wants to give their car the personal feel and the dramatic touch, and some tech-heads out there fill their cars with all of the gadgets and gizmos you would expect to find in the modern living room. Let`s take a look at the kind of in car Gadgets and Accessories which are on the market today and what you can expect from the brands that produce them.

Audio Systems, Hi-Fi and Stereo Equipment – The sheer volume and variety of in car audio equipment is incredible. From the value ranges produced by Rip Speed right up to Sony and Pioneer mega systems with subwoofers and ten speakers, you can put almost anything into your car if you have the knowhow or the money to employ someone who does. Bear in mind that equipping your car with extra audio equipment and amplification devices will drain your battery quicker and result in poorer fuel economy.

Satellite Navigation – Over recent years this has been only available to the wealthy as built in computing software on high-end vehicles, or as expensive, clunky and unintuitive devices which you could take in your car with you. However, now the market has been blown wide open, thanks to the likes of TomTom and Garmin, both of whom are producing cheap Sat Nav systems which are bursting with features and available for use in any car. The current Sat Nav price war means that you will be able to get a decent system for under £100, and some stores and retailers will demonstrate how it works so that you can use it instantly to find your way to destinations without having to glance at a map or get in an argument with your significant other. Shopping around to get the best deal is advisable, as many internet sites have them on special offers, as well as the major high street suppliers. If you want to have face to face contact with a system before you buy, heading to the high street is the best way to see a Sat Nav system demonstrated and in action.

In Car Entertainment – Because of the revolution in LCD screen technology, you can now buy small, great quality LCD screens which strap to the back of the headrests in your car without the need to install them directly into the seats. These units are available with built in DVD players and even digital TV receivers if you want to receive Freeview channels on the move. Some come with connections that you can plug games consoles into to keep the kids quiet during long journeys.

Security – When filling your car with all this expensive new equipment, you may consider increasing the security of your car with a new alarm system or a car tracker system, to make sure that if your car is stolen at any time, you will be able to track it and recover it from its new location. This is something that high end cars are sometimes fitted with as standard, but is a technology that can be installed on nearly any car.

“WorkMate will be at home alongside your tool kit for all those DIY jobs or perfect for any outside sport, such as boating or fishing. It’s the perfect gift for dads and granddads so they can tune into talkSPORT while washing the car or gardening,” said Katie Richards, Marketing Manager at Intempo.

“WorkMate shouldn’t be confined to the shed though! Intempo has made sure that WorkMate hits the high notes in design, making it ideal for use indoors as a portable DAB,” added Katie.
