It is a thousand pounds, but not in the way you think. The Philips Pronto Professional TSU-9600 remote costs a thousand British pounds. I’ve looked at the Pronto line before because they’re fully customizable, support a touchscreen interface and work with just about every electronic device you’d want to control. What Philips doesn’t control is the price on these; everytime I get close to saving my pennies, they have a new model that costs more. ;)
The TSU-9600 sports a 2.7-inch VGA touchscreen, infrared, speech support and WiFi. If we could just get it to run Windows XP Tablet Edition, we’d have another UMPC choice!
