Apple's patent for the iTV Remote Revealed

T3, the very popular gadget mag, has recently made a mockup-design of what they expect (or should I say wish) the iTV’s remote to be.

They resumed what Apple’s patent document for this remote said very nicely:

Appleâ??s patent documents show a touch screen remote crafted with typical minimalism, and a range of screen functions.

The main example lists a TV, video tape player and video disk player as being under the controlâ??s command, as well as computer DVD player, computer MP3 player, stereo and home controls.

I don’t mean to make the rumor mill spin faster, but their mockup design could very well be close to what Apple describes in the patent. At least it’s in accordance with it.
