I think the N900 could have the potential for being a fantastic universal remote for A/V equipment. Since it can connect to the internet, one could imagine companies providing profiles for various remotes, allowing one to store a whole set of remotes in one unit. Since it has a touch screen, the screen could be configured to appear like just about any remote available. You'd just press the button on the screen to stop or pause or play, etc. I suppose it could even learn the commands of generic remotes by monitoring the outputs of these remotes. It has the potential of being a killer app.

Of course, the N900 would have to have a IR port to do this, something the N810 unfortunately lacks....
