Ipod Touch Remote

Hi

I have already searched and cannot find a thread on this.

I just got an Ipod Touch 16gb for xmas. I have downloaded a demo of Signal (http://www.sipedia.co.uk/mac/signal.php) which allows you to control iTunes from the ipod.

I am tempted to buy it in order to have full version, but does anyone know of any other software that will enable me to control itunes from ipod touch?

Also are there any drawbacks or limitations to Signal?


Thanks

Remote Buddy is great. Try a 30-day trial, at the link above. No jailbreak/app installation required.

sorry for not reply sooner. I lost track of this post.

Thanks for the info though. I downloaded and tried Remote Buddy. I love a lot of the features and functionality. But there are downsides to using it. It seems to be slow at going through my music library and sometimes does not work at all.

Signal is another good alternative. It doesnt have as many features as remote buddy, but seems to perform better at browsing and searching my music library.

I dont think I will purchase either of them though. I'm hoping will eventually release their own later in the year, so might just wait for that..........if it ever sees light of day :-)

Thanks
