Apple has unveiled its new sleek aluminium remote stick, which can be used to control iPhones, iPods and iMacs.
The remote gives users who connect their iPod or iPhone to a home stereo total control over their music and video choice.
Perfect for a party, there is no need to access the device to change songs, as they can be skipped using the forward and backwards functions on the stick from anywhere in the room, while volume can also be adjusted and tracks can be paused at the click of a button.
The remote is also compatible with Apple Macs which were introduced after 2005 and have a built-in infrared receiver.
Choice over music, photos and DVDs is given through a full-screen interface known as Front Row.
When the menu button is pressed on the remote, the Mac desktop fades and the new home screen takes over, turning the machine into a virtual multimedia powerhouse.
The product will cost £15 in the UK and is expected to go on sale within the next month.
