If you love gadgets, toys and home automation, this app, along with the tranceiver, is amazingly useful and fun. I have it set up so that I can email my home and turn my air conditioner on, among other things. I do wish they had good integration with the Palm operating system. With iRed, EyeTV, Indigo, Automator, iListen, iTunes and Phone Valet my entire home it totally interactive. Another great aspect of iRed is that it is so easy to use. You can either create an awesome single remote pane, or you can use the more advanced features and create a level of interactivity with your home that you'd think you were in a Star Trek movie. The documentation is just html files and don't really grab your attention.
