RoboHippo LLC HippoRemote Pro v3.1 iPad iPhone iPod Touch-Lz0PDA | 8 MB

HippoRemote Pro also has a gamepad mode, letting you control your favorite PC games.

And because it all works over Wi-Fi, you get superior range and no line-of-sight issues compared to traditional remotes. No extra dongles or expensive adapters required.
