Apple Remote App

I came across the following YouTube today. Apple has quietly released a new version of Remote Apple for iPhone or iPod Touch. It extends the functionality to control the Apple TV on top of iTunes.

If you are using Remote App to control your Apple TV, you can now enjoy the multi-touch feature to scroll the songs or movies on your Apple TV. This definitely add a new dimension of “Cool” feature compared to the old remote that use button to scroll up or down.

What I like Best!!!!

I am now downloading and installing the update. I have no chance to test the update yet. Well, improvement like reduce dropped call and improved battery will be difficult to tell, I think. But I think the best feature I like most will be the map feature to have street view. However, I am still waiting for the Google Earth app but still not available on my iTunes store in Singapore yet.
